NOM 1616 | Tried a couple different single barrel offerings, each different with one clear winner. The agave shined through on the nose with vanilla notes on the palate and a soft finish. It was enjoyable but price really hurts this brand. I would buy a bottle but it would not be kept in regular rotation.

NOM 1616 | Regular (Blended) Repo: Oak, orange peel, vanilla, earth, slight bitterness, and a touch of funk. I’ve come to learn Codigo blends far less barrels than other brands. Where one brand might blend 40-80 barrels, for Codigo it’s more like 8-9. So there is still a fair amount of variation from batch to batch. Rating = 84 Single Barrels: had three different barrels recently and I’d probably rate them 82, 85, 87. Lots of variation. One was earthy, another vanilla forward, and third nicely mid-range with some agave, pepper, and vanilla. A bit short on the finish but overall nicely done. Price does knock some points off.

NOM 1500 | Aroma: Strong notes of agave, oak, and smoke. Taste: Smooth, the oak is very present, with nice hints of vanilla. Finish: Smoky, with a bite of the alcohol at the end. Overall: A very nice, clean reposado. The strength of the oak may put some people off, but I find it delicious.

NOM 1500 | I like the Codigo 1530 line of tequilas. This one unfortunately is my least favorite. A little harsh, but agave shows well.

NOM 1500 | The oak treatment has really muted the sweetness, this has achieved much more balance and I’m a huge fan! If you’re looking for a subtle fan favourite this might be it.

NOM 1500 | Similar sweet, vegetal nose as the blanco with traces of butterscotch and citrus. Light body, I get cooked agave followed by barrel notes on low volume.. some caramel and oak. Followed by a touch of pepper, the finish is short and the heat hangs in the back of the mouth.

NOM 1500 | Great offering but almost priced a little high. Citrus notes, agave forward, a touch of oak and vanilla, not overly sweet.

NOM 1500 | Rated Blind for MBTC 2018 Oaky, smokey, subtle sweetness.

NOM 1500 | Rated blind. Too expensive.

NOM 1500 | the perfect blend of charred agave forward and rested smoothness. love it

NOM 1500 | I like this better than the blanco as the edges have been rounded off a bit. Still spicy on sipping there is caramel, toffee, barrel spice of oak and custard. This tastes aged enough to be an anejo actually. Interesting and not cookie cutter.

NOM 1500 | Very smooth, on the sweet side. Agave, vanilla, caramel, and oak.

NOM 1500 | This is a somewhat pleasant tequila but it's a bit overpriced. Yet another celebrity brand--this is from George Strait.

Had at the taco and tequila fest in Phoenix

Not a fan of the Rosa when I had it but was pleasantly surprised by this one neat at a local bar. A bit sweeter than I’m used to in a repo but enjoyable.

NOM 1500 | For some reason I taste alcohol prominently forward and again on the finish. It’s still very clean and I’ll try it in a mixed drink tonight. As a sipper though it’s not as smooth as the Siete 7.

NOM 1616 | On the nose you are greeted with cooked agave, slight barrel spice, mandarin and slight caramel sweetness. At first sip you get a sweet cooked agave, vanilla sweetness and orange. On the finish the flavors slowly mellow out revealing more of a bitter orange note with some oak. Short finish

NOM 1616 | Super clean and easy to drink

NOM 1500 | In my glass: Codigo 1530 Reposado Nom 1500 375 ML bottle Taste caramel butterscotch and oak. Taste a sweet profile, after having tequila ocho blanco. Finish is stronger then some Blanco’s I’ve had. Overall too sweet for my taste. Paid $20 for 375 ml so at this price I would buy again for someone who likes a sweeter profile. Not getting too much agave flavor. More of a whiskey type profile to my palate.

NOM 1616 || Smells great, lots of butterscotch, some alcohol, oak and caramel. However, it's harsh when it goes down. Won't purchase this again, but it's still better than some additive bombs in the current market.

vanilla, apple, smells of citrus, coffee

NOM 1616 | Lots of caramel and butterscotch on the nose, maybe a bit of oak. Not too sweet, definitely tastes of agave and pepper. A bite going down but a very nice aftertaste.

NOM 1616 | Aroma- light caramel, butterscotch, hint of agave Taste- caramel, agave, black pepper Finish- minimal bite, caramel, agave, black pepper Overall- A solid reposado, maybe the weakest of the Código line up though.

NOM 1616 | Smoky finish

NOM 1616 | I’m a huge fan of Codigo’s XA and Anejo, this one, however, is a step down and for the price I would not recommend it.
