Released just once a year, this extraordinary expression pushes the boundaries of traditional tequila maturation while remaining strictly true to Fortaleza’s artisanal, additive-free roots. Whether it takes the crown jewel position in the premium allocation vault at Nestor Liquor or is reserved for elite guests relaxing after a round in the virtual bays at The Smash, this bottle is an absolute triumph for any serious connoisseur.

Every annual vintage of the Winter Blend is a completely unique, one-off creation that showcases the distillery’s mastery of multi-cask blending. The foundation is always Fortaleza’s classic, 100% tahona-crushed reposado, which is then meticulously married with tequilas aged in an array of specialty barrelssuch as French oak, Oloroso sherry, or Hungarian wine casksdepending on the specific year’s recipe. Bottled at an elevated proof (typically between 87 and 93 Proof) to better carry the rich, complex barrel oils, it delivers a spectacular, winter-inspired depth that stands entirely in a class of its own.
