NOM 1607 | This is disturbingly bad tequila

Synthetic and artificial.

NOM 1607 | Smells like angel food cake, I’m getting some agave but mostly vanilla and caramelized sugar. Taste isn’t a huge departure from the smell, this is definitely on the sweet side of things. I would say the closest comparison I could make is biscotti, that almond is really coming through. Overall this is kinda what I expect from contract brands, it’s mass appeal should help it find its market share.

NOM 1137 | Aroma is actually not bad, it’s the flavor profile and finish that’s really not good Sweet, sweet and does not resemble tequilla …. Hyped up marketing machine

Bad, just bad. Nothing going on here. Another I had to spit out for fear of ruining my palate for the next Tasting...

REDUCED RATING- NOM 1137 blanco =56 for me. It's horrible, and it tasted more manipulated with vanilla cream custard the more I drank it...disgusting. The new NOM 1607 Repo is even worse... it's disgusting and undrinkable. That may be the WORST reposado I we've had=39

NOM 1137 | Aroma: Sweet cream soda, vanilla, light on agave, but I get cream soda through and through. Very prominent. A touch of caramel. Makes me wonder if this isn't additive heavy, or if they rested it in barrel. It smells nice, but nothing tells me this is tequila. Palate: The sweet cream soda on the nose comes through front and center. Agave is notably missing. I get a little bit of baking spice, vanilla, a touch of ethanol on the back end. Honestly, this is really tasty, very palatable, but not tequila. Definitely additive laden. I get mild hints of cooked agave, but man, it's really missing here. They made an interesting sipping spirit, but a mediocre tequila. Verdict: Skip I would give this a much higher score if I was trying to judge it as something other than tequila. As far as I’m concerned, it’s mediocre as a tequila, the agave is notably missing, the cream soda is dominating in the nose and palate. That’s not a bad thing if you want a dessert spirit, but it is if you want a sipping blanco. Tastes engineered, not crafted. No judgment if you like it, it’s clearly made to be palatable and tasty, probably makes a very interesting cocktail, but this doesn’t hold a candle to anything in its price range. It’s missing that nasty diffuser taste, so that’s good, but I can’t recommend this in good faith. I’m not going to completely dunk on it like all the fake outrage reviewers are, but it’s definitely not a good tequila in my eyes.

NOM 1137 | Cream soda, vegetal, candy nose with sweet cinnamon taste and bitter finish. Has light fingerprint of Cofradia products, but manipulated.

NOM 1137 | Lots of vanilla in the aroma here (a lot!!), but still retains that signature Cofradia green vegetal aroma. Flavor is super sweet, cinnamon, and vanilla. This flavor profile is designed for people who don’t like tequila.

NOM 1137 | Swamp water with vanilla flavor ... uuuhhhhgg!!

NOM 1137 | Nose: Minty, cinnamon, vanilla cotton candy-like aroma. The typical NOM #1137 swamp aroma, but bathed in vanilla. A little sharpness to the nose, perhaps a mineral note. Flavor: An entrance of thick vanilla viscosity. Slightly bitter pepper notes hitting the sides of my tongue and back of the throat . Tastes of artificially flavored vanilla saltwater taffy. A dash of cinnamon. Finish: An odd acrid aftertaste to the sweetness, and lingering sulfur detract from the tasting experience. I’m hoping that the next iteration of 818 out of new NOM #1607 brings significant improvements.

NOM 1607 | If you are a huge fan of drinking cotton candy. This is for you. Or to the person that wants to drink tequila that doesn’t taste like tequila.

Wow and I thought Casamigos was awful. A: Cake batter, vanilla icing, cream soda, Splenda. T: Vanilla cake all day long with commercially made orgeat. Where’s the agave? I couldn’t find it and sure as hell not taking more sips of this so called tequila to find the agave. F: Not a good finish. It was mostly fake almond and vanilla with weird tannins that coat the whole mouth. Although there is a diffuser at this distillery… the claimed production methods really make me sad. Cooked in ovens, tahona crushed, copper pot stills. If someone says autoclave tequilas are bad, have they tried 818. Absolutely undrinkable and a disgrace to tequila.

Irremarkable and quite off-putting. Hefty load of additives make this tequila taste fake and artificial. Harsh finish despite an almost cakey opening. Definitely skip this one

NOM 1607 | Ok after switching to the next distillery I think most of us can tell what you are doing. Blanco that tastes like vanilla birthday cake with artificial rum frosting is not fooling most of us. Good luck with your cash grab.

This is some bomb-ass piss! Best piss I’ve ever tasted - and that’s saying something. However, unsurprisingly, considered as a tequila, it’s the spirit equivalent of a Kardashian’s chin: blatantly fake and betraying a painful lack of understanding of what it’s even supposed to resemble. On the bright side, it’s obvious that Kendall had the final word on the flavour, because no tequila aficionado would ever have signed off on this.

This is a moderately good blanco. It goes down smooth, but nothing special. It’s over priced for what it is, but no one should be able to say its bad. The 818 reposado though, stay away - its more expensive and tastes like vanilla extract tequila.
