Tequila Ocho Extra Añejo La Mula 2021 is a single-estate extra añejo made from agave grown in the La Mula field and aged for more than three years in repurposed whiskey casks. It is bottled at 40% ABV.
Tequila Ocho names the individual rancho its agave comes from on every bottle and dates each release by vintage, so every edition shows the terroir of one field in one year. Ocho deliberately uses well-used barrels so that its aged tequilas stay agave-forward, and the La Mula extra añejo shows that philosophy clearly: cooked agave still leads, with the barrel adding depth rather than dominating.
On the nose come roasted agave, vanilla and toasted oak, with clove and caramel. The palate brings dark chocolate, baking spice, caramelised agave, honey, light citrus and a little nuttiness, and the finish is balanced, with oak and pepper.
The tall, textured bottle is presented in a black wooden case, making it a handsome gift and a fine piece for collectors of single-estate tequila.
Sip it slowly from a tequila glass and enjoy how a single field and a single vintage express themselves. Collectors often compare Ocho's vintages side by side, since each estate and year brings its own nuance.
