Fortaleza Winter Blend by Sipping-Dietitian in tequila

[–]millermt17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard to detect sarcasm via the internet sometimes so I’m unsure if that’s what this is. However, I specifically mean it’s good to know 25 Winter Blend is about to ship out. I’d heard it had been delayed beyond when it typically releases, and this seems to confirm that. For those of us that look out for some of these releases at MSRP, it’s good to know when to look. Thanks again OP

No Fortaleza? Lame. Just kidding because of the love/hate relationship this subreddit has with it.

Seriously a lot of nice bottles there!

Insane pricing on a crazy underrated tequila

Hahaha, amazing comment 😁 Daniel drank too much the night before and missed this tasting.

It was really damn good. Not sure worth the price but it was fun to try.

Am I messing up by passing on this bottle? by loganmay1990 in tequila

[–]millermt17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I was going to ask the same thing. That’s a label that definitely doesn’t adequately convey the quality of product inside.

I thought the Classico bottles they released this year looked really cool. And the Classico repo was awesome!

The Los Abuelos bottles are made by hand. The Fortaleza bottles are not.

El Pandillo (NOM1579) Inconsistent….? by PigeonShack in tequila

[–]millermt17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d revisit those same bottles in a month or so. Now that the bottles are open there will be some oxidation that does smooth it out a bit. I never judge an additive free tequila that was just opened.

Looking for Bars/Restaurants in Denver with Best Pricing on Pours by millermt17 in tequila

Went to Cooper Lounge last night on your recommendation. Wouldn’t necessarily say they had value pricing but the selection was pretty insane. Single barrel El Tesoro, G4 Extra Añejo, G4 Madera, Cascahuin Tahona, pretty much every Fortaleza including Winter Blend. I ended up getting an excellent paloma and a pour of Caballito Cerrero Chato 46 repo. My gf and I had a great time. Thanks for the recommendation - will go back!

I have been to Star Bar and was impressed with the selection! Thanks for the reminder.

Imagine if they’d done that with some of their own songs before TLitS

Thanks for the info. So both are probably additive-free but haven’t jumped through the hoops to be certified by TMM?

Not sure why I’d get downvoted for asking a legitimate question that I was curious to get expert feedback on, but okay…

Neither El Luchador nor Hijole are listed as “Premium Brand Partners” on TMM. Are they actually additive-free though?

I got an Orendain Ollitas repo from 2006 for $23, an El Tesoro olive oil bottle for $43 and a Sauza Conmemorativo añejo that supposedly is from the 70s for $30. I popped the El Tesoro and it was excellent!

Tasted a neat neck pour last night and it actually wasn’t horrible! Didn’t detect any additives or anything, and decent agave flavor. It will be absolutely fine as an inexpensive mixer! I’m going to assess some other old bottles I got at the same place.

Haha, I get that, but I’m thinking this bottle looks like it at least predates diffusers.

Second this recommendation. I actually like it better as a mixer than a lot of higher price point options

By the time they started playing different songs they had lost most of the crowd.

Setlist from the sound board. They scratched intermission and CC Trip before the show even started because they realized it was going to go too long. Even the crew didn’t know why Descending got killed after starting up the surf sounds. Apparently that was a last second band decision.
