Very nice! A little spice on this one. Enjoyed a glass at a local bar and felt like it was in the top half of WB releases. Price is out of control on these and I did ding the score but honestly I wish we didn’t have to score pricing. From a quality standpoint this is worth checking out for sure. From a value standpoint, no Reposado is worth this price.

Didn’t pay for it so I didn’t have price in mind when enjoying it. With that said- I can’t justify $400 for this bottle.

Definitely points off for the price! But it’s a lovely, spicy repo. Fortaleza Still Strength was aged for 6 months in French oak barrels that previously held Passito di Caluso, wine (a straw or raisin wine from Italy). It came out of the barrels at 46.2% ABV. Then, they removed that tequila and refilled the same barrels with Still Strength again, this time for 5 months. That batch came out at 45.6% ABV. Those two fills were then blended with the regular Reposado. • 60% Fortaleza Reposado • 20% first-fill barrels • 20% second-fill barrels Bottled at 46abv

The cost really hurt this one.

I feel like I get a fig/berry finish that’s really smooth

Strong cooked agave, mineral , cinnamon, caramel, pepper, earthy, oaky, and vanilla. Short finish, caramel lingers.

This one is a pretty good WB release, but the prices I've seen and distillery prices kills the score.

Nice well made reposado. But, I don't think it's worth the MSRP or secondary prices I see out there.

It’s ok but the purchase price is wild

It’s decent but not worth the hype or price. Taters will go nuts for it I’m sure.
