Vanguard Luxury Brands is proud to announce that Tequila Ocho's Blanco and Reposado have just moved from the 500ml to 750ml sizes for the Australian market.  The new sizes and presentation are now available.  There will be some transition period between the current 500ml stocks and the new 750ml stocks.

 Tequila Ocho is made by Carlos Camarena, a third generation Tequilero, in partnership with global tequila authority, Tomas Estes.  Ocho is the first tequila to designate both the year it was produced and the precise field from which the family grown agaves were sourced.  Each batch comes from a different field or rancho contributing distinctive characteristics of that place.  Since the agaves take about 8 years to grow, that field will not yield another vintage for at least 8 years, making each vintage uniquely collectible.

Ocho is made carefully in small quantities the artisanal way of times past. This results in a pure tequila which has an exceptionally full and complex agave flavour while being smooth and balanced.

“People adore the Ocho brand,” said James France of Vanguard.  "We believe the new presentation which is currently used in the USA will better reflect the unique quality features which make Ocho an ultra-premium brand.  We believe it will have a great impact in the retail trade as well.”

France added: “We can’t wait to get this new presentation out there.  The pricing will offer a cost saving compared to the 500ml, on a per-litre basis, so our customers will appreciate that extra margin as well.”
