Do you ever think of how much Terroir impacts the tequila that you are drinking? In this episode, we explore this proven concept with Brand Ambassador Jesse Estes and Tequila Ocho.

They are using single estate agaves from different ranches each having its own microclimate creating characteristics in flavor and aroma that are particular to each ranch.
