Tasted at Sip Tequila Fest

Tasted at Sip Tequila Fest Ocho’s 2021 Extra Anejo was a nice change of pace among the other XA’s at the event. This XA proved to still be very much dominated by its cooked agave base as opposed to other expressions which leaned more into the oak. The barrel characteristics did not overtake the spirit, yet added subtle nuanced notes. I found a lovely vanilla through line in addition to the trademark Ocho cooked agave. Light caramel, honey, and citrus on the mid palate with a mid range finish. I’m a sucker for this kind of profile.

This is such a good bang for your buck brand. You can’t go wrong with Ocho. This blanco has such bright aromas and flavors from the terroir. Nose: sweet cooked agave, citrus, black pepper, minerals, brine, and very floral. Palate: sweet cooked agave, citrus, black pepper, minerals, brine, and earth. Great mouth feel with a medium finish. Such a great sipper.

When it comes to bang for your buck, tequila Ocho is a leader of the pack. This year’s blanco showcases the strengths of this generational powerhouse. On the nose I get a butter crème, sweet potato, orange peel, lime wedge, tangerine, mint, cardamom, and anise. On the palate, the citrus hinted at on the nose encompasses the palate. Subtle earthiness, mineral, and pepper notes come through after peeling back the layers of citrus marmalade. The finish is good, but nothing to write home about in terms of length & no additional notes are detected on the finish. Delicious, refreshing, accessible.
