Tequila Ocho Plata, Reposado & Anejo Bundle

The Tequila Ocho Plata, Reposado & Añejo Bundle is a fantastic way to experience the distinct character and quality of Tequila Ocho across its core expressions. Tequila Ocho is known for its commitment to showcasing the terroir of single estates and its additive-free production methods. Each tequila in the bundle offers a unique profile that reflects both the agave and the aging process.

While specific tasting notes can vary slightly between different "single estate" releases (ranchos) and vintages, here's a general overview of what you can expect from each expression in the bundle:

Tequila Ocho Plata (Blanco/Silver):

• Un-aged, bottled shortly after distillation.
• Aroma: Expect bright and fresh agave notes, often accompanied by citrus (lemon, lime), herbal undertones (grassy, vegetal), and sometimes a hint of minerality or pepper. The specific aroma can vary depending on the "rancho" (estate) the agave comes from.
• Palate: The palate will be a direct expression of the cooked agave, with a vibrant sweetness balanced by peppery spice and the terroir-driven herbal or earthy notes. It should have a clean and lively character.
• Finish: Typically clean and crisp with a lingering agave sweetness and a touch of spice.

Tequila Ocho Reposado:

• Aged for a specific period in oak barrels (Tequila regulations require a minimum of two months and less than a year). Ocho often ages their Reposado for precisely 8 weeks and 8 days to achieve a specific balance.
• Aroma: The aging in oak will introduce notes of vanilla, caramel, and subtle spice (cinnamon, clove) to the fresh agave aromas. You might also find hints of fruit.
• Palate: The cooked agave will still be prominent, but it will be softened and complemented by the sweet and spicy notes from the oak. Expect a smoother texture than the Plata.
• Finish: The finish will be longer than the Plata, with the oak-derived flavors lingering alongside the agave.

Tequila Ocho Añejo:

• Aged for a longer period in oak barrels (Tequila regulations require a minimum of one year and less than three years).
• Aroma: Expect more pronounced oak influence, with notes of vanilla, caramel, butterscotch, and richer spices. Dried fruit (raisins, figs) and chocolate notes can also develop. The agave will be present but more integrated with the oak.
• Palate: Smooth and complex, with the sweet and spicy oak notes taking a more dominant role alongside the cooked agave. The texture will be richer and more velvety.
• Finish: Long and warm, with the oak-derived flavors and sometimes hints of bitterness or tannins lingering on the palate.

Overall Impression of the Bundle:

Purchasing the Tequila Ocho Plata, Reposado, and Añejo bundle offers a fantastic opportunity to:

• Compare and contrast the impact of aging on the same high-quality agave spirit.
• Appreciate the terroir that Tequila Ocho emphasizes, as even the Plata can showcase different nuances depending on the agave source.
• Have a versatile selection of tequila for different occasions, from bright and fresh cocktails (Plata) to sipping neat and appreciating the complexities of aged spirits (Reposado and Añejo).
