NOM 1609 | Nose: Sweet vanilla, oak, fake thick caramel, bubble gum, rich sugar Flavor: Strange oak flavor which doesn’t taste quite right. Vanilla, cake, bubble gum, tingling tongue, short finish. While this is not for me, I can imagine some people just trying out tequila could enjoy it. Clear additives which were not very well integrated. The Repo is much better.

NOM 1609 | Nice oak presence, notes of caramel and vanilla.. Lacking in the finish.

At the bar

NOM 1416 | It’s an easy drinking spirit but if tasted blind would be hard to guess it’s a tequila. Although not as artificial as the reposado, there is no agave. Time in the barrel adds another layer so it’s not extremely sweet like the reposado, just very sweet.

Aroma of wood and caramel, no discernable agave scent. Taste mirrors scent. If this were included in a blind flight of whiskies one wouldn't stop and wonder why a tequila was in there. Very bland. (NOM 1416)

The tasting note that’s stood out to me was caramel popcorn. There was a nuttiness, vanilla, and caramel finish that led me to that conclusion. Overpriced unfortunately.

NOM 1609 | This tequila has a good start in both aroma and flavor but it lacks on finish. Nice cream soda or caramel taste mix with cinnamon, agave and butterscotch making it a little too sweet at finish. I think it is artificial sweet

sweet vanilla aroma n flavor

Initial taste is Caramel which is very pleasing. Overall taste is sweet but not a fan of the after taste which takes away from the enjoyment of this drink.

NOM 1609 | I like to think this is the gate way to finer tequilas, the sweet flavor profile meets the American palate. A clean simple bottle has picked up fans quickly. A mass appeal Anejo

NOM 1416 | Cooked agave and nothing else fascinating. There is little to no complexity. Basic tequila

NOM 1416 | Easy enough to get along with, sweet balances heat and the glass is empty before you know it.

NOM 1416 | It is just pleasant. First time trying their Añejo. Sweet aroma and taste. Nothing overpowering or remarkable. But good. The finish is the best part of it—very easy going down. Not too sweet. Pleasant.

NOM 1416 | Caramel and vanilla on the nose, some cooked agave present on the mouth. Smooth, not very complex finish. Overall a decent añejo

NOM 1416 | Caramel, agave, and oak in a smooth sipper.

NOM 1416 | Like class Azul it's too sweetened and thin on agave see John Welch and Grovers review....

NOM 1416 | More of that artificial sweetness/ nastiness. I don't care what the producers say, something not right going on here.

NOM 1416 | Good anejo, enjoyable, but not exciting.

NOM 1416 | Aroma is faint and unrevealing. A little chocolate after a couple minutes in my glass. Again, chocolate is the predominant flavor. Really no heat to speak of. Finish is quick. If you like sweet forward tequila, you might like it. It's not like Clase Azul, but Casamigos brand tequilas are more on the sweeter side.

NOM 1416 | deep caramel, oak, butter, & slightly smokey. drinking this on a rainy day. perfect. very nice sipper. easy caramel and butterscotch engulf your mouth. no burn, no problem. excellent tequila. nice job, batman.

NOM 1416 | Caramel, hint of peat, smooth.

NOM 1416 | Toasted (hazel?) nut, cinnamon and sherry nose with sweet cinnamon finish and lightweight mouthfeel. No agave aroma/flavor that I can find. Strangely reminds me of port wine in the mouth. Smells and tastes like sweetener.

NOM 1416 | Wow, this is super sweet. Almost too much so. The nose has lots of toasted cinnamon and cake batter vanilla but no agave. The overly sweetened profile won't please the tequila purist, but will probably be popular among inexperienced tequila drinkers. I am also picking up on diffuser-like aromas, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that was mixed in.
