Process & Profile

Tequila Ocho Extra Añejo San Jerónimo Estate 2023 showcases agave from a single Highland field near Arandas, where rocky terrain and rich red soil help shape the estate’s character. Ocho’s production process uses slowly roasted agave, brick ovens and fermentation with natural airborne yeast to preserve an agave-focused profile. Three years of maturation in American oak barrels add depth and complexity. The resulting tequila combines caramel and coffee notes with herbs, minerality and a sweet cooked-agave finish.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Café latte, caramel, cinnamon and gentle fruity acidity, with jalapeño, rosemary, thyme and earthy pepper accents.

• Palate: Salted caramel and pronounced minerality, accompanied by dried hay and rosemary.

• Finish: Sweet cooked agave and ripe fruit, followed by lingering cajeta and roasted coffee notes.

What Makes It Special

• Single-estate tequila made with agave from Rancho San Jerónimo.

• Vintage-dated to identify the 2023 estate harvest.

• Matured for three years in American oak barrels.

• Made from 100% Blue Weber agave using Ocho’s additive-free approach.

• Combines barrel-aged richness with herbal and mineral character.

• Represents a selective category within Ocho’s portfolio, as not every harvest becomes an extra añejo.

How to Enjoy

Serve neat in a tulip-shaped tequila glass at room temperature. Let the pour rest briefly, then explore how the coffee, caramel, herbs and agave develop. A few drops of water offer another way to examine the balance.

For a pairing, try dark chocolate, roasted nuts or a small serving of caramel-based dessert. A large ice cube provides a cooler alternative with gradual dilution.
