This extraordinary collaboration between two revered spirits houses unites Tequila Ocho's signature agave-forward approach with the rich heritage of Heaven Hill's legendary Old Fitzgerald wheated bourbon barrels.
A Tale of Two Terroirs
Carefully curated from two distinct 2023 vintages, this special release features agave harvested from both the clay-rich, low-altitude terrain of Rancho Corralillos and the historic lands of Rancho Potrero Grande near Jesus Maria—ancestral home to the Camarena family. Each batch rests for 12 months in freshly emptied casks that previously held Old Fitzgerald's coveted 10-Year-Old Spring 2023 Decanter Series wheated bourbon. The marriage produces a harmonious balance between the tequila's natural agave character and subtle sweetness from the bourbon-soaked oak, bottled at a robust 48% ABV (96 proof). With only 3,200 cases available nationwide, this limited expression represents a rare intersection of tequila tradition and bourbon excellence.
An Exploration of Botanical Depth
The nose reveals layers of overripe agave complemented by rich caramel and warm oak inherited from the wheated bourbon barrels. On the palate, the tequila maintains its agave-forward identity while incorporating gentle notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and the distinctive mellow sweetness characteristic of wheated bourbon
