From the highlands of Arandas, Jalisco, Tequila Ocho Plata is a single-estate blanco that captures the terroir-driven philosophy of master distiller Carlos Camarena in every unaged, crystal-clear pour.Produced at NOM 1474 under Camarena's meticulous oversight, Ocho Plata is crafted from fully mature blue agave grown in the red clay soils of Jalisco's Los Altos region, slow-cooked to draw out the full depth of the plant before fermentation and distillation. Nose: Cooked agave leads with bright citrus, black pepper, and a grounding whisper of earth and fresh grass. Palate: Full and expressive, with cooked agave at the core, layered alongside black pepper, cool mint, and a wave of tropical fruit that keeps things lively and fresh, with subtle earthy undertones throughout. Finish: Long and gradually fading, clean and light-bodied with a pleasing, refreshing close. Tequila Ocho Plata shines in a classic Margarita, where its citrus brightness and herbal edge are right at home, and it brings exceptional depth to a Paloma as well.Best enjoyed neat or over a single large ice cube to let the agave character breathe fully. Tequila Ocho Plata is an unaged blanco tequila crafted from blue agave in Arandas, Jalisco.
