Carlos Camarena and Tomás Estes built Ocho around a question worth exploring: how does tequila change with the growing place and harvest? Single Estate and Terroir Select now offer two ways to compare.
Tres Agaves keeps the range simple: Blanco around $30, Reposado around $35–37 and Añejo around $42 in our US price check. Its own Amatitán distillery opened in 2019.
Choose an El Tesoro aged bottle by maturation, barrel history, edition and observed price.
Jenny Camarena leads the Highlands distillery behind El Tesoro. Stone milling and fermentation with agave pulp run through the range; the aged bottles explore bourbon, Cognac and Japanese whisky casks.
A 70% agave Blanco, a 100% agave Platinum, Gran Reserva blends and a six-year Reposado make this an unusually varied range. The useful differences are in the full expression names.
Pepe Hermosillo’s tequila moves from unaged Blanco to a two-year Añejo and the Marqués blend. The regular Añejo costs only a little more than Reposado in our US price check.
Casa Dragones ranges from a $55 Blanco to a $250 Joven blend in an engraved decanter. Reposado explores Japanese Mizunara oak, while Karol G’s 200 Copas is a clear, aged tequila.
Choose Teremana Blanco, Reposado or Añejo for cocktails, with metric Margarita, Paloma and Old Fashioned measures and US bottle prices.
