Ocho Blanco Tequila, 50 cl

One of the few tequilas still made slowly in the old fashioned way, Tequila Ocho accentuates that which is exclusive to tequila; the agave flavour. Ocho is the first tequila brand to designate both the year it was produced and the precise field from which the family grown agaves were sourced. Each batch comes from a different field or ranch contributing distinctive characteristics of that place to the spirit ?INTENSE AND CLEAN. Ocho Blanco Tequila is the producer’s unaged expression and honors the noble agaves of Arandas and the Camarena ‘Ranchos’.

This is a crisp, expressive and luscious tequila that is intense and focused in style. Integral and flavoursome, Ocho Blanco is as delicious to sip neat as it is to mix in cocktails ?TASTING NOTES. Palate is understated with deep and assertive flavours of maple, cantaloupe, lilac, stewed peach, and avocado creaminess 8️⃣WHY EIGHT? Ocho, or eight in English, is the number of days from when the agaves reach the patio at the distillery until it becomes blanco (unaged) tequila. It is also the number of years for the agaves to ripen before being harvested.

The Camarenas are also in their eighth decade of producing tequila ??THE FIRST SINGLE ESTATE TEQUILA. Ocho is the first single estate tequila, designed to showcase the agave plant’s ability to convey differing flavours from the land. Each vintage is harvested from diverse fields around the Mexican state of Jalisco. The brainchild of Tomas Estes and Carlos Camarena, two much loved and celebrated tequila experts.
