Tequila Ocho Plata 750ml
Tequila Ocho Plata was co-founded in 2008 by third-generation tequilero Carlos Camarena and international tequila ambassador Tomas Estes, launched as the first tequila brand to bottle spirits from hyper-specific, single-estate agave plots with harvest year and field origin identified right on the label. Overripe agave from the highlands of Los Altos de Jalisco is slowly roasted in old brick ovens, fermented with natural airborne yeast, and distilled at low temperatures using both steel and copper pot stills, an unhurried process built to let maximum agave character shine through.
