2023 San Jerónimo | Beautiful agave on the nose, really enjoy nosing this. Very easy and approachable. Pleasure to drink. Slight hint of pepper on the finish. Agree with everyone else that this is a winner.

2023 San Jerónimo | Aromas: First whiff transports me back to the magic of Ocho Factory smells. Green and grassy. Thyme, mint, citrus blossoms. A slightly sweet & sour cider note. A nose tickle of earthy minerals and cinnamon. Almost ripe pineapple, slices of green Crispin apples and a tease of caramel. Flavor: Incredibly thick mouth feel. Enveloping warmth. Deep, decadently intense agave sweetness. Pepper and cinnamon dancing in and out, punctuating the flavor journey. Briny undertones. A marvelous melding of elements. This one is a stand out!

2023 Mesa Colorada | Bottle 46,966 this is from agave grown outside of Jesus Mária at an altitude of almost 2000 meters asl. Some nice floral notes on the nose along with agave and a bit of citrus peel. On sipping this has a very nice roast agave and white pepper front end which are carried by some nice natural viscosity and an ethanol buzz that centers on my tongue tip. Great finish of spicy fruit and minerals as the alcohol fades and leaves a lingering agave sweetness.

2022 Cerro Del Gallo | Aroma: Herbal, very citrusy aromas with a touch of sweetness, as well as crisp and pleasant minerality. Taste: Light and sweet, with lovely herbal and anise notes. The flavor then develops into a richer cooked agave, tastes fresh yet earthy. Finish: Lingering flavors of anise, lime zest, with a touch of sweetness and a hint of bitterness.

2010 Los Mangos | Smells great! Fruity and floral. Tasting agave, papaya, butterscotch, and pepper with a buttery first sip, followed by nice tingle and dry medium finish.

2023 Agua Nueva | A hint of smoke, roast agave, earth and some medicinal sharpness on the nose. Taste is sweet pickled jalapeño pepper and agave along with minerals from the earthy aroma. Quite different from several recent releases which to me have trended to more citrus, floral, and fruit elements. Finish is medium length, fading to natural sweetness with ethanol tang and tip of the tongue and gum buzz.

2023 Agua Nueva | More bitter than previous lotes with pepper being a more dominant note than the sweetness from agave. Funny since it’s made from very ripe and seeet agave.

2023 Agua Nueva | Aromas: Fresh, light and minty. Honey, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon. Ripe pineapple, citrus and pineapple rind; mineral aromas wend their way throughout. Flavors: A slap of black pepper. Lime oils. Thick, oily agave. Briney. Some underlying warmth served up in the the pepper and spice. But a tiny bitter note intrudes. July 18 2023 upgrade: +1. Another great summer sip.

2023 Mesa Colorada | The precursor and base juice for the upcoming 2023 Puntas. Nose: Phenomenally full nosing experience. Lots of green elements but rich and warm at the same time. Cítricos of lemon and lime peel and aromatic orange oils. Green pineapples. Minerals and celery. Fresh rosemary, oregano and thyme. Flowery undertones. Oodles of steamed agave sprinkled with crumbled almond pralines. A bit of vanilla rounds out the aromas. A hint of smokiness? Flavors: Satin-like first sip. Cinnamon, licorice and moderate pepper warmth. A touch of brininess. Signature forefront agave character. That tease of vanilla found in the nose persists to the tasting.

2022 Cerro Del Gallo | Nose: Both fresh green agave aromas and the bouquet of Las Alambiques horno cooked agave in its cooling stages. Sweet cinnamon. Minty Mediterranean oregano. Freshly sliced sweet green apple. Taste: Medium pepper and sweetness in tandem. Light oils and salinity. Pepper heat does accumulate while sipping. Medium long finish. This is a refreshing, light blanco. Note: This one seems to blossom with subsequent pours. And give it a breather.

2022 La Estancia | This Rancho is atypical, having a grey soil rich in calcium and containing limestone. Nose: Crisp entrance. Fragrant lime oils and orange peel. A tease of cinnamon, nutmeg, mint and thyme. Tart apples. A grind or two of black pepper. Flavor: Buttery and slightly oily. Ratcheting pepper heat. Vanilla, allspice and salinity making peekaboo appearances. The citrus notes hold their ground, marrying nicely with the agave and baking spice. Finish: A sweet and round, mouth filling finish. La Estancia is a departure from other recent Ocho Plata releases. Another classic study in terroir.

2022 El Nacimiento | What a beautiful tequila. I am partial to blancos and Ocho quickly became one of my favorite on the first sip. It’s soft aroma delicately takes you to Tequila, MX, with the smell of agave in the air. It’s followed by white pepper and slight citrus. Nothing is over represented. It’s incredibly well balanced. I might make my wife wear this behind her ear as a perfume. Tasting is agave forward, as I would expect from a finely produced tequila. It’s subtle pepper rests gently on a bed of earthy herbs, citrus, and flowers. I don’t need to buy a ticket or GDL. Mexico is delivered in this gorgeous juice.
