NOM 1079 | from NOM 1079 (not 1580). grass, pear, green agave on the nose - extremely prevalent. some pepper hits the upper nostrils. earthy/cantaloupe can be detected. the flavor carries the pear through big time. cantaloupe rind and black pepper on the retrohale and finish. there is cantaloupe rind on the palate subtly throughout initial taste as well (might be thought of as vegetal rather than cantaloupe rind). the rustic, mild heat is present and but not overbearing. agave is present on nose and flavor, but not at the forefront, which I normally don't rate highly, but this is very welcoming and enjoyable. very unique. I have not had the NOM 1580 version, but this is outstanding.

NOM 1079 | Classic 1079 wet grass and green pear in the nose. Light pepper, short but flavorful mouth feels. A nice, lingering finish.

NOM 1580 | Nose: Cinnamon, canned pears, and some pungency. Flavor: Almonds, pronounced pepper, on the sweet side with some bitterness. Finish is medium long with pepper, aforementioned bitterness and a slightly strange sweetness.

Older bottle from the early mid 2000's. While other batches have been much more flavorful and complex, this one is Very singular with citrus and raw agave notes and a bit too much bitterness for my personal taste.

This the the tequila that defines buttery oily mouthfeel, and that is what makes it a legendary tequila!

NOM 1079 | NOM 1079. NOM 1079. I decided to a flight of Oro Azul based really on the repo review, and I am really happy with this blanco. The flavor is like a shiny new toy at Christmas... You just want to hang on to it and make sure no one else plays with it. Has very sweet moments then does some judo move into serious tequila land. For the price I'd say try it if you are wanting to try a new blanco.
