OCHO VS. BANHEZThe Art of Agave
Sip single-estate tequila next to its smoky cousin, an artisanal mezcal from a cooperative in the central valley of Oaxaca.
Spend an hour discovering how Ocho and Banhez connect agave, place, and craft from Jalisco fields to Oaxaca mezcal.
Purple Cork takes care of the planning, guest experience, shipping support, and live production around every Ocho vs. Banhez experience.
All tequila is mezcal, but not all mezcal is tequila.
Join this guided agave comparison rooted in single-estate tequila and cooperative mezcal.
Tequila Ocho was created by Carlos Camarena and Tomas Estes to show terroir in tequila, while Banhez is owned and operated by cooperative families in Ejutla, Oaxaca, giving guests two distinct sipping experiences.
Guests take a virtual tour of the historical and intensive process behind mezcal and tequila.
