Tomas Estes and the Camarena family are the founders of Tequila Ocho single estate tequilas. This one, La Magueyera, is a name honoring the maguey plants themselves. The agaves used to make this tequila were grown in gray clay soil on south-facing slopes, which get full sunlight on the average day. Their añejo is aged for one year in very used American whiskey barrels which become “neutralized” and is therefore able to retain as much true agave flavor as possible.
