| Long Description | Tequila Ocho Reposado Barrel Proof is rested for 8 weeks in seasoned ex-American whiskey barrels, the bare minimum amount of time as required by law. This aging process imparts complexity while allowing for maximum agave presence. The bold agave flavors, as only Carlos and Tomas would have it, are proof that terroir exists in tequila. 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 the Golden Triangle of Los Altos de Jalisco 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. Reposado is then aged for 8 weeks in ex-American whiskey barrels. On the nose, it offers notes of rich fruits with vanilla and butterscotch. The palate is smooth with sweet cooked agave notes complemented with sweet spice, cinnamon, and delicate vanilla, resulting in a long, creamy finish. |
