Since its debut in 2005, Tequila Fortaleza has earned a devoted following—unmatched by any other brand with just 20 years in the U.S. market. But Fortaleza’s roots run much deeper, stretching back 140 years to the very origins of the Tequila industry. Owner Guillermo Erickson Sauza is a fifth-generation member of the famed Sauza family, whose legacy began in 1843 with his great-great-grandfather, Cenobio Sauza.
When Guillermo returned to the family’s historic distillery—tucked between industry giants in the town of Tequila—in the late 1990s, it had been out of operation for more than 30 years and was serving as a museum. He began carefully restoring it, and by 2003, tequila was flowing once again. Today, Tequila Fortaleza is proudly “made the old way,” using a 100-year-old brick oven fired by a 113-year-old boiler, traditional stone Tahona milling, natural fermentation, and double distillation in copper pot stills.
Please join us as we welcome Sally Kim, Key Accounts Manager for Breakthru Beverage Group, for a one-night-only event. Inspired by the bold, authentic flavors of Mexico, each course has been thoughtfully designed to complement Fortaleza’s exceptional tequilas. Guests will enjoy the full line of Fortaleza expressions in an unforgettable evening of food and spirits.
