Ocho Tequila is a joint project between Master Distiller Carlos Camarena, a third generation tequilero, and Tomas Estes. Estes has been selling and promoting tequila in his Mexican bars and restaurants since 1976, and has gained recognition and respect throughout the worldwide bar and spirits community for his work promoting tequila, agave spirits and Mexican culture. It is made at La Alteña distillery in Jalisco, Mexico.
It's all about 8 (ocho): it takes an average of 8 years for agave to be ripe for harvesting, and 8 kilos make one liter of tequila, and this tequila is made from the 8th sample created by the Camarenas for Tomas Estes.
Los Patos Plata is unaged and honors the noble agaves of Arandas and the Camarena “Ranchos” through intense, lively and clean flavors. Sweetly floral nose with extra ripe agave and candied fruit notes. Citrus, cinnamon, dried fruit and almond on the palate with a lingering hint of spearmint on the finish.
