Tequila Ocho Reposado is a single-estate, additive-free tequila rested exactly 8 weeks and 8 days in ex-American whiskey barrels and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Ocho comes from the Camarena family and the late Tomas Estes, and it is celebrated for its single-estate, vintage-dated approach: each batch comes from a single field, showing how place shapes the flavor of agave. The agaves are slow-roasted in brick ovens, naturally fermented and double distilled in copper pot stills.
The short rest of 8 weeks and 8 days, true to the brand's name, gives soft oak nuances and a slight translucent amber color while keeping the vibrant, earthy spirit of the agave. The aroma brings rich fruit with vanilla and butterscotch and a broad floral note. Sweet cooked agave shines on the palate, balanced by sweet spice, cinnamon and delicate vanilla, and the finish is long and creamy, with soft tannins and agave sweetness.
It is a thoughtful gift for tequila lovers.
Reposado, meaning rested, is tequila aged between two months and a year in oak, which gives it a pale gold colour and a gentle touch of wood while keeping the agave bright and lively.
Tequila can only be made from blue Weber agave in five designated Mexican states, chiefly Jalisco, and the finest bottlings are made from 100% agave. Sipping tequila is best enjoyed from a narrow-rimmed glass that concentrates the aromas, at room temperature and without salt or lime, so the character of the agave and the barrel can come through.
