Blind tasted: Showcased the basic framework of a modern reposado and profile felt watered down (easy to drink)

Soft nose, little funk to it but clean agave. Calmed down after a day. Soft all around. Decent finish. Easy to drink. Not my favorite 1414 offering but I’m in the minority here

Initial impression is that this is a really nice, inoffensive reposado.

Nose: oak, some cooked agave, grassy, cinnamon, burnt caramel, melted butter, and grilled tropical fruit Flavor: oak, cooked agave, cinnamon , vanilla, cardamom, and white pepper floral notes Finish: medium starts with heat and ends earthy (wet cement)

Oh my goodness, so good. Smell of agave, slight oak, little vanilla, loads of pepper. Taste is similar agave, slight vanilla, punch of pepper on the finish. It’s a perfect balance of agave and sweetness. So good.

There’s still cooked agave in the aroma, which is great. The added aromas of toasted oak bring another layer of interesting complexity to the blanco. I’m still getting the grass in the aroma, too. Flavor is cooked agave, caramel, butter, with the caramel and butter lingering in the finish. An extremely pleasant tequila with some natural sweetness.

Tropical fruit, cinammon, and burnt caramel aromas from the char. Sweet cooked agave flavor, like the blanco. Caramel finish. Very nice.

I agree with Jose that the taste profile feels a bit watered down, though the finish is amazingly long - especially for fans of black pepper! A superb value for this affordable Reposado price point, though…

There's a lot going on in this reposado. It packs character that I might expect to find in an Anejo or Extra Anejo. Caramel on the nose, sweet cooked agave, cinnamon and oak as well. In a blind, I might be fooled as to what expression I am actually drinking. That said, it's well rounded and a very impressive reposado, especially for the price!

Very smooth on the finish. Great Reposado with a nice price point. Great distillery. Enjoy.

Grass, hay/straw, olive oil Metallic, roasted agave, baking spice, coconut oil, thyme, basil, rosemary

Vanilla

Aroma is light, lot of caramel/vanilla to me smells like additives, palate is ok, similar to smell caramel vanilla some pal, smooth and silky but not much agave or herb/floral flavor, losing a lot of the plant/natural stuff i like here, not my favorite personally

On the nose i get cinnamon, oak,vanilla, caramel,light cooked agave, On the taste very easy to drink naturally sweet barrel influence with cooked agave. Taste very good and easy to drink

Beautiful, light, crisp, with an earthy minerality. A wonderfully affordable repo ($47, Ferment and Still and $40 @ Saratoga Wine Exchange). Extra points for value. Nose: Cooked agave, straw, and an earthy minerality up front. Subtle presence of toasted oak, cinnamon, and pear or pineapple. Very clean. Palate: Silky, buttery, mouthfeel with a slight warmth. Up front there is roasted agave, a little oak, butter, and pepper. A pleasant balance of minerality and earthiness. Suble fruit notes appear, then fade quickly. Finish: The buttery, mineral, and pepper finish reside for a medium to long finish. Reminds me of ArteNOM 1414.

On the nose is sweet cooked agave, some oak, and a hint of dried figs. On the palate...agave, some minerals, sweet fruits, and some brine. A bit lighter than expected but overall, delicious!

Did not expect this to be as good as it is m Really well balanced between agave, wood vanilla and caramel. Definite recommendation for your collection.

Light alcohol aroma, mainly grass and cooked agave. Beautiful nose. Flavor bringing oak and vanilla with more delicious cooked agave. I notice a fast-medium finish. Literally the best reposado under $45 out there (imo). NOM 1414 is known for bringing amazing tequila to the table and this is no exception.

My new favorite tequila. Pleasant aromas of cooked agave and charred tropical fruits on the nose. Smooth going down with vanilla, caramel, agave and pepper on the finish. Another fantastic tequila from 1414.
