🔔 Magnum’s is incredibly excited to announce an exceptionally rare Connoisseurs Corner tasting experience featuring one of the most revered and sought-after tequila brands in the world — Fortaleza Tequila.
Crafted in the heart of Tequila, Jalisco, Fortaleza represents old-world tequila making at its absolute finest. Produced at the historic Destilería La Fortaleza by Guillermo Sauza — a fifth-generation descendant of one of tequila’s founding families — Fortaleza is celebrated for its commitment to traditional methods including tahona-crushed agave, open-air fermentation, copper pot distillation, and aging in American oak barrels. Every bottle is a tribute to authentic tequila craftsmanship, and for aficionados, Fortaleza has become one of the most collectible and allocated tequila brands on the market today.
🗓️ This Saturday, May 9th at 6:00 P.M., Magnum’s will proudly celebrate the arrival of the highly anticipated and award-winning 2025 Fortaleza Winter Blend.
→ Your guided tasting experience will begin with Fortaleza Blanco — the purest expression of the agave itself. Bright, vibrant, and remarkably complex, the Blanco opens with aromas of roasted agave, citrus zest, black pepper, and fresh herbs before delivering a silky palate layered with olive brine, minerality, and subtle earthy sweetness.
→ From there, your tequila journey continues with the legendary Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco. Bottled straight from the still at a higher proof, this bold and intensely flavorful tequila showcases concentrated notes of cooked agave, cracked peppercorn, tropical fruit, citrus oil, and a beautifully long, peppery finish that tequila enthusiasts absolutely chase.
→ As your experience unfolds, you will enjoy Fortaleza Reposado, aged patiently in American oak barrels. Rich yet elegant, this expression offers layers of caramelized agave, vanilla bean, cinnamon, toasted oak, and soft baking spice while maintaining the unmistakable character that has made Fortaleza world famous.
→ Next, you will savor Fortaleza Añejo — a stunningly balanced aged tequila with notes of butterscotch, dark caramel, orange peel, toasted almond, sweet oak, and delicate spice, all wrapped together in an incredibly refined finish.
→ And finally, as your tasting journey comes to a close, you will experience what so many tequila collectors and aficionados only wish they had the opportunity to enjoy — the extraordinarily limited and highly coveted Fortaleza 2025 Winter Blend.
🔓 Released in extremely limited quantities each year, Winter Blend has become one of the most anticipated tequila releases in the world. Known for its exceptional barrel finishing techniques and extraordinary complexity, the 2025 release promises a once-in-a-lifetime tasting experience that very few tequila enthusiasts will ever have the opportunity to enjoy side-by-side with the rest of the Fortaleza lineup.
For true aficionados, it simply does not get much better than this.
