"ARANDAS, JALISCO, Mexico - Tequila Ocho announces the release of Tequila Ocho Reposado Barrel Select Widow Jane 2022, a limited edition tequila aged for eight weeks and eight days in used bourbon barrels from the Brooklyn-based Widow Jane Distillery. Bottles will arrive on retail shelves and back bars in the back half of October.
This extraordinary single-estate, single-field spirit is the latest example of Tequila Ocho's commitment to innovation, and to the expression of terroir in tequila, having been crafted using overripe agaves harvested exclusively from Rancho El Nacimiento, one of many fields, or ranchos, owned and operated by the family of legendary tequilero and Tequila Ocho co-founder Carlos Camarena. The liquid is an agave-forward tequila, for which Tequila Ocho is world-renowned, and the heady aromas, rich caramel, and baking spice notes from Widow Jane bourbon barrels.
This latest barrel select release comes just over two years after Tequila Ocho's last barrel select offerings of three distinct, limited-edition blends of añejo created in partnership with Mason Ferrand Master Blender Alexandre Gabriel.
Tequila Ocho's Barrel Select range is emblematic of a brand founded by visionaries committed to bottling only the finest, agave-forward tequilas, and driven by experimentation, discovery, and innovation. This extends to the specific casks chosen for the Barrel Select range.
Said Tequila Ocho co-founder Carlos Camarena, "This limited edition reposado reflects Ocho's philosophy on agave-forward tequila by showcasing the terroir of the agave used, while bringing some notes of vanilla, oak and caramel from the Widow Jane barrels to create a pleasant and well-balanced spirit. I am certain it will appeal to the palates of both tequila and whiskey aficionados.
