Made exclusively with overripe agaves from Rancho Las Raíces, this limited release brings together the traditions of Carlos Camarena’s Tequila Ocho and Alexandre Gabriel’s Ferrand Cognac. The casks introduce baked pear, honey and delicate floral accents while allowing the cooked-agave character to remain central. Bottled at 88.8 proof, it balances fruit and caramel with herbs, coffee, ginger and vibrant minerality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNose:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cherry, ground cinnamon and caramelized cajeta, complemented by green guava, celery, cilantro and damp earth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePalate:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cooked agave and salted caramel with pronounced minerality, ginger, roasted coffee and fresh wood.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFinish:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Persistent fresh-wood notes that add depth to the agave, caramel and spice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade with agave harvested exclusively from Rancho Las Raíces in the Jalisco Highlands.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMatured for 12 months in French oak barrels previously used for Ferrand Cognac.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottled at 44.4% ABV, equivalent to 88.8 proof.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRepresents the third collaboration between Tequila Ocho and Ferrand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduced as a limited small-batch Barrel Select expression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFollows Ocho’s additive-free approach using agave, water and natural airborne yeast.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eServe neat in a tulip-shaped tequila glass and allow the pour to rest briefly before tasting.
