Flavour notes

The aroma opens with toasted oak, joined by sweet notes of vanilla and caramel. As it develops, dried fruit and honey come forward, adding warmth and a rounded sweetness.

On the palate, the texture is silky, with rich flavours of toasted oak, candied fruit and cinnamon. Hints of chocolate and walnut add another layer without taking away from the smooth, sweet impression.

The finish is long and warming, carrying oak, pepper and tropical fruit. A touch of honey and vanilla leaves a soft, lingering impression.

Product info about Fortaleza Winter 2023

Fortaleza Winter 2023 is a special reposado release built around a yearly idea: take Fortaleza's classic Reposado and reinterpret it through a distinctive blend. Rather than presenting a fixed house style in the usual way, this edition gives the reposado a different frame, shaped by a carefully chosen mix of oak casks.

The 2023 blend brings together tequila matured in several cask types. American oak casks that previously held Charanda were used, alongside French oak casks that had previously held Winter Blend 2022 and originally Oloroso sherry, plus Hungarian oak casks that had also held Winter Blend 2022 and originally Tokaji. These twelve casks were finally blended with Fortaleza's classic Reposado and adjusted to 44% ABV.

At Drankenshop Broekmans, this is the kind of tequila we see as more than a standard reposado. Its appeal lies in the way the cask story has been layered: different oak origins, different previous contents, and a final blend that exists only for this annual Winter edition.

Produced in limited quantities and described as highly collectible, Fortaleza Winter 2023 has the quiet pull of a bottle made for people who enjoy following these once-a-year releases. The real interest, however, is in the glass: a reposado shaped by a very specific cask composition and released only in this form.

The aroma opens with toasted oak, joined by sweet notes of vanilla and caramel. As it develops, dried fruit and honey come forward, adding warmth and a rounded sweetness.

On the palate, the texture is silky, with rich flavours of toasted oak, candied fruit and cinnamon. Hints of chocolate and walnut add another layer without taking away from the smooth, sweet impression.

The finish is long and warming, carrying oak, pepper and tropical fruit. A touch of honey and vanilla leaves a soft, lingering impression.

About FORTALEZA

Although Tequila Fortaleza has only existed as a brand since 2005, they already have more than 150 years of history. Don Cenobio founded his first distillery (La Perseverancia) in 1873 in Jalisco. He was the first to export tequila to the USA and was also the first to use steam to cook the agave instead of cooking it in an earthen pot. Don Javier, the third generation in the distillery, would from the 1970s strive to protect tequila as a product, something which would eventually succeed in 1996. Fortaleza came into the possession of the family in the 1960s and was produced on a small scale, but the distillery was closed in 1968 because it was not efficient enough. The grandson of Don Javier, Don Guillermo, would later renovate and reopen Fortaleza, as a tribute to the family history.

Frequently asked questions

Is Fortaleza Winter 2023 suitable to give as a gift?

Although this Fortaleza Winter 2023 is not or does not have explicit gift packaging, it can certainly make an excellent gift. Gift packs are usually taken as a safe choice of gift because brands often combine the most accessible or their most popular tequila combine with a fun accessory in a nice gift pack. But if you are looking for a gift for an experienced tequila-drinker they may not be waiting for yet another glass and then this one Fortaleza Winter 2023 might even be a better choice than such a gift pack.

Is Fortaleza Winter 2023 a tequila to invest in?

Fortaleza Winter 2023 is a tequila of Fortaleza that was referred to by us as a Collector'stequila. That is, we believe they have the most potential to increase in value over time.

Whether that will actually happen we obviously cannot predict. We therefore always advise never to invest or speculate in tequila that you would never want to drink yourself out of.

Is Fortaleza Winter 2023 vegan?

According to the data currently available to us, we cannot state with certainty that this product is vegan and this claim is not explicitly made by the brand.

Is Fortaleza Winter 2023 a biological tequila?

Based on the information available to us, we can conclude that this Fortaleza Winter 2023 tequila from Fortaleza is not an organic product.

Can I buy Fortaleza Winter 2023 without deploying loyalty tokens?

Fortaleza Winter 2023 is one tequila which is part of our loyalty programme. That means you have to use loyalty tokens to buy this bottle. Without the necessary loyalty tokens, you cannot order this bottle from us, not even at an additional price or by contacting us by e-mail. On principle, we do not make any exceptions to our programme.

In the past, loyal Broekmans customers were often left out in the cold because bottles like this one were immediately bought up by bottle flippers. True fans and lovers of our products were therefore condemned to the much more expensive second-hand market. With this loyalty programme, every customer who consistently chooses Broekmans has the opportunity to build up a token balance, and with those accumulated credits they can then grant themselves access to unique and rare bottlings like this one.

Thus, as an tequilaenthusiast who consistently chooses Broekmans has more than an edge over anyone who is only concerned with capitalising on it rather than from a deep-seated passion.
