Little musk and funk on the nose, green apple and black licorice. Notes of orange peel, cinnamon and spice, ends with white pepper and a pretty long finish. At home in a cocktail

Really interesting aroma mostly good with some strong alcohol. Aroma is earthy with minerals. Taste is good and not too hot. Finish is nice with long-lingering pepper and agave.

A Fruity & Spicy tequila. Aroma: cooked agave, green apple, dill, ripe plantain, and marzipan. Palate; peppercorns and butternut squash with some Black pepper.

I can’t get past that proprietary yeast, it’s a pretty honest effort from Cofradia and one of the better products I’ve tried. Still not recommended, if this. Rand wants to be taken seriously they should find an alternate producer.

It’s a bit hot on the finish, but it’s also high octane tequila. I like it!

NOM 1137- Aromas of cinnamon, pepper, and spice, with minerals, and a musty aroma, with citrus, vegetal, floral and some anise (licorice) notes. It has a potent taste with a hot cinnamon presence and a musty, sharp, mild fruit, citrus and spice presence, along with some sweet agave notes. It is pleasant enough to sip, but in a hi-proof cocktail, this agave sweetness and alcohol punch, would cut through the mixed flavors and add a tasty zest. Decent price for an over proof blanco.

Sharp aroma with agave and noticeable alcohol sting. Also, a bit of an unpleasant rubber-like note. Flavor is rich and full with cinnamon, black pepper and a hint of fruit sweetness. The finish is short. 6/29/2017

Strong agave flavor, maybe a tad harsh for my taste.

This tequila needs time to open up like many other Blanco's I have found. I believe the sharpness will go away and the agave will come forward.

Burns in a good way. My go-to sipper for around $20.

NOM 1607 | Puff of alcohol right away. Once that went away, some nice aromas pop out. Just hard to pinpoint. The sip acts the same. Pop alcohol & spice and the flavor lingers. Minty licorice and earthy. Way overpriced and left me disappointed since I have seen in the market for years.

NOM 1607 | 1607 NOM tastes medicinal and very little agave flavor

Bought as my first 100% agave, basically because I just wanted some tequila for the first time in a while and decided to ball out for a birthday (it was $23, lol). I remember it being somewhat harsh, with more pepper than I prefer. Not terrible, but there are much better options in the price range. Probably won’t buy it again, but it was the first one to make me realize that I actually like this stuff. Cool bottle though!

Fruity alcohol on the nose. A lot of pepper on the palate—took me by surprise, too. Sort of a medicinal taste to it, which isn’t particularly pleasant, but there’s some citrus that redeems it a tad. A long finish that’s just a straight up burn. Not that enjoyable, if I’m being honest.

This is the new release from Diagio. Worst tequila I have ever had. Aroma and palate just like a sharpie marker. I get no agave just straight sharpie. Do not buy whatever you do. No picture on here yet but it’s a navy blue label with a powder blue letter A and agave logo on the front. Only reason I bought it was because I saw the reviews from the old discontinued release.

NOM 1607 | Lingering alcohol taste and finish. Initial nose is light and crisp agave but the taste quickly just fades to alcohol only. It was on sale but if I paid full price for this one $35 instead of $23 I’d be kinda upset. There’s far better out there for the same price

Astral Tequila - It's 'Interesting'

For the money, Astral Tequila is a good high proof, clean blanco. As a sipper it could be a little rough around the edges, but perfect for a high quality mixed cocktail. So keep drinking tequila, and as Jonathan would say.... Stay thirsty my friends.

Blanco Tequila: The Great Divide

While the panel’s favorites were complex, elemental and intriguing, we were troubled by a lack of intensity in many of the bottles as well as by a sense of artificiality in some. As Florence put it, we found a great divide between those tequilas we liked

Tequilas worth a shot (or sip)

When it comes to tequila, the basic choice is simple: 100% agave, or not 100% agave. Of course, this is like saying that when it comes to music, there’s Mozart or there’s a guy named Steve-O playing the kazoo version of Eine kleine Nachtmusik alone in a b
