About this bottle

Tequila Ocho distinguishes itself as the first tequila brand to implement a method previously exclusive to the wine industry. It is the sole single-estate, vintage tequila available. Because all of its agave is sourced from distinct family farms, each release highlights the unique characteristics of its specific estate. The El Refugio estate is situated at an altitude of 2055 meters, with soil abundant in red iron oxide. Agave cultivated in this location and under these climatic conditions exhibits exceptionally high sugar levels.

Why there's no score

We have 2 ratings for this bottle, and we don't publish an average until 30 people have weighed in.

A handful of ratings can average to anything, and a 4.8 built on three of them looks exactly like a 4.8 built on three hundred. Rather than print a number we can't stand behind, we leave it blank until the count is there. The critic score above comes from a panel rather than the crowd, so it stands on its own.
