Tequila Ocho Extra Anejo (La Latilla) is made by Carlos Camarena, a third generation 'Tequilero' who also makes El Tesoro and Tapatio. Ocho is made from Agaves harvested from one single rancho exclusively. This follows the concept in wine making of single vineyard wines, single rancho, single estate Teqiula is a unique concept in the Tequila industry.
Rancho 'La Latilla' is a small ahmlet 1km from the distillery La Altena. There are 27 inhabitants mostly members of the Coronado family, most of who work at La Altena. La Latilla means a small piece of wood used to make a ceiling. This rancho has been in the Camarena family for 30 years. Before being planted with Agave, it was used for grazing cattle and sheep. Carlos Camarena's sister Gaby, is the owner. The rancho slopes gently from the east giving full afternoon sun exposure to the Agaves. The rancho has mature cedar and oak tress around the land. The soil is typical of the highlands with red oxide and clay and is slightly acidic.

FAQ
Questions and Answers
-
What does Agaveria means?
Agaveria is the place where to buy spirits made from Agave, such as
Tequila, Mezcal, Raicilla, Sotol and many more. It comes from the two
Spanish words Agave and Eria – from the Latin word that means store. -
What is the difference between Tequila, Mezcal, Sotol and Raicilla?
First, those spirits come from Mexico, and all have Appellation of Origin, better known as Denomination of Origin, meaning that nowhere else in the world can make these spirits and call them such.
The main difference between each one is the specie of Agave used (except for Sotol since it’s not made out of an Agave, but from a plant called Dasylirion or better known as Sotol) own plant and is not an agave) and the place/region/state that is made. There are differences in their process, and each spirit has a unique and distinctive
flavour and character. -
How do I store my spirit?
We recommend you do two things first, store them in a place away from sunlight and significant temperature changes, and second, seal your bottles with clingwrap or parafilm to preserve the alcohol.
