Just got in 3 New Fortalezas for 2023. Blanco, Reposado, Repo-Winter Blend. This New 7 Leguas this 70th Edition. I appreciate the wonderful rich taste in every sip, drink. 🥃😄100%
I am very new to tequilas and mezcal and I am so glad that I have found your channel. You have taught me so much already and I haven't even bought a bottle of either yet. I appreciate your honesty and your advice. Thank you so much Mark for your time and effort in making these videos. I look forward to joining in on a live-stream, especially about mezcal. My friends from Mexico recommend mezcal over tequila but I want to experience both.
Wow, thank you for the kind words. I am super glad that the channel is helping you. I am always here to help and hope to see you on the live streams and maybe even become a member! Thanks for watching and enjoy your agave spirit journey! Both tequila and mezcals and more are amazing!
@@TheTequilaHombre Thanks for the reply Mark. I will seriously think about becoming a member once I have tried a quality tequila and mezcal. So far I have only tried Don Julio and Patron in shots. I live in NW Minnesota and there is not much choice in the small town where I live. I'm hoping that I can convince the liquor store and the Mexican restaurant where we eat to start carrying/serving quality tequila. Thanks again for your videos and your critiques. I'm pretty sure that I will find pleasure in my new journey and I am glad that you will be along for the ride.
I think you're right on the price point holding this one back. I think some taters bought it expecting it to sell out and I've seen it available for a lot less than 140 or 150. At 100 or so out the door I think it's a great buy, I really enjoy it
Can't argue with the Hombre's honest take, at $150 US the juice has to be special. Too much well made, quality juice to justify paying up - even for an iconic traditional brand. Also, really appreciate your insights with the marketing spin on "Criollo" Blue Weber agave.
I was waiting for this review, I Buy it 1 month ago and it was very disappointed, I surprised how a lot of people rating 96 to 99, this is a 89 for me at most, so know I know the Tequila Hombre is the good one! Thank you for the honest review!
I was highly disappointed by this release, I thought it might be on par with the calle23 criollo... it wasn't.. not even close, I would skip on this and try to find a calle23 criollo, I paid 120 for my bottle I wouldn't buy another at that price.

Yep. I too was disappointed. Waaay Over priced. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Thanks for your honesty 👍
Thanks for watching.
Wow. Thanks for the review and the heads up.
Glad to help!
Does the criollo agave have a higher sugar content? Is the regular siete luguas tahona crushed? Excellent review as always!
No, it's just smaller than the regular agave. Yes, regular siete is a blend between 2 factories. I has a tahona and one a roller mill.
Thanks for the honesty
Thanks for watching!
I agree on the price, and if you compared it calle 23 yes calle 23 is better 🥂🥂
I agree.
For that price, and a little less, it would be the Fuenteseca 2018 for me.
Thanks for sharing and watching!
Spent $140 on Fortaleza,Tapatio 1L and Pasote 1579 blancos this weekend. I’ll pass at that price.
nice thanks for watching!
Exceptional Blanco...worth $100
Thanks for sharing your opinion and for watching.
Thanks, I was about to pull the gun at $150 glad I found this review 🎉
Glad I helped you! Thanks for watching..
Hombre, is it worth the $115 you'd normally pay for it in Atotonilco? That's about what I paid last time I was there (late Sept/early October).
No. I don't think so. It's a nice $65 Blanco.
I like this Blanco. Could be cheaper.
Way over priced for what it is.
Is there a way to know what states this is coming too? In another review, Texas wasn’t mentioned.
I'm sure it will be in Texas. If not you can always order it in Ferment and Still. With 40k bottles there will be plenty.
So calle 23 criollo use the same marketing deal with the criollo agave?
Yep.. Sophie is just an amazing biochemist.. It's the fermentation that made the difference on that tequila.
I was highly disappointed by this release, I thought it might be on par with the calle23 criollo... it wasn't.. not even close, I would skip on this and try to find a calle23 criollo, I paid 120 for my bottle I wouldn't buy another at that price.
Yes, I agree with you 100%. As you can see in the video.. I felt the same way. Thanks for watching!
When are you going to have Calle 23 criollo if there are any lol?
Criollo is gone. If you are expecting the same thing with this... you are going to be extremely disappointed.
Wow this really sucked. Not worth the price just like I thought. Maybe at 75-80 would be a better price point for this.
More like $40-50.
