Tequila Ocho La Latilla Reposado Tequila 2018 (750mL)

Tequila Ocho La Latilla Reposado Tequila 2018 (750mL)

Nose- lily blossom, peach, stewed plums, green tobacco, cotton candy, slight anise, eucalyptus, no oak present
Palate- begins with tangerine, lemon grass, notes of bread yeast, anise, black pepper and finishing with roasted pineapple
It’s like a basket of fruit and a bouquet of flowers. There’s a maddening cacao hint-or better yet carob- to the taste that delights

Rancho “La Latilla” is a small hamlet 1 km. as the crow flies from the distillery ‘ La Alteña’. There are 27 inhabitants mostly of the Coronado family most of who work at La Altena. “La Latilla” means a small piece of wood used to make a ceiling. This rancho has been in the Camarena Family for 30 years. Before being planted with agave it was used for grazing cattle and sheep. Carlos Camarena’s sister Gaby is the owner. The rancho slopes gently from the east giving full afternoon sun exposure.

The rancho has mature cedar and oak trees around the land. The soil is typical of the Highlands with red oxide and clay and is slightly acidic. This ranch is about 1 Kilometer from the distillery, “La Alteña” where Tequila Ocho is made. At harvest the plants were 7 years of age being fully mature with an average sugar content of 32%, which is well above usual. This harvest is the second of three or even four. Not all plants are harvested at once –as some do – since not all are properly matured for use in Ocho. The later harvests will be used for Tequila Tapatio.

Aged in ex-American Whiskey barrels for 8 weeks and 8 days.

Colour – Slight straw color, medium body.

Nose – Flan, coffee, bright agave perfume, anise, pineapple, orange, nutmeg, caramel, egg yolk, cream, mint, clove, acetone, leather, green olives.

Palate – Bright red berries at the entry, pepper, fresh mint, dark bitter chocolate, vanilla, slight coconut, butterscotch, a finish of dark brown sugar. Big, bold and complex while remaining harmonious.
