Tequila Ocho Plata 2025 "La Mesa" is a stunning expression of high-altitude agave, harvested from a unique plateau sitting over 7,000 feet above sea level. The intense highland sunlight and deep red clay soil produce an exceptionally sweet plant, resulting in a spirit with a remarkably silky and luscious texture. Because this tequila is a single-estate vintage, it captures a specific moment in time and a specific piece of land that can never be replicated. It is a pure and vibrant find that showcases the incredible natural sweetness and floral character of the Arandas region without any additives.
