| Long Description | Tequila Ocho Plata showcases the purest expression of the blue Weber agave. Unaged and vibrant, bringing the agave-forward profile directly from the greater highlands of Jalisco and neighboring states Michoacan and Guanajuato, delivering intense, lively, and clean flavors. With bold agave character, as only Carlos and Tomas would have it, Ocho Plata is a true testament to the existence of terroir in tequila highlighting the nuances between different fields and regions, offering a unique profile and sipping experience from bottle to bottle. Like all of Tequila Ocho, only three ingredients are used: agave, natural airborne yeast, and water. Production is done the slow, artisanal way with patience in each step. Solely overripe agaves are harvested from Los Altos, or the Highlands, before being slow-cooked in brick ovens for 48 hours and laid to cool for another 24 hours. The agaves are roller-mill crushed, fermented using natural airborne yeast, and double-pot distilled at low temperatures, first in stainless steel with copper components, second in full copper pots. On the nose, it offers notes of crisp, bright agave with lively citrus, fresh white pepper, and minerality. The palate is full of complex agave notes featuring fresh cut grass and a touch of earthiness, ending with a thick, viscous mouthfeel and long harmonious finish. |
