NOM 1438, try neat at $8. North of the border in Canada. Screw cap bottle. On the nose, fruits mix with agave, white pepper, orange zest, grilled pineapple, yellow banana, grass, mint and lime. Flavor includes grass, spice agave, earth, sugar cane with mint, licorice, pumpkin, and yellow banana. Finish is very peppery and hot, great for mixing but not a sipper for me. Reviewed Nov 2017.
Quite a different tasting tequila, very floral. Not very smooth but a bit smoother than I was expecting; and only OK in a margarita. You can taste the floral even when mixed. I had friends who seemed to really like this tequila but they weren't big tequila drinkers. So it might appeal more to those who don't drink tequila much. Wouldn't drink straight ever and for the price there are better options, both 100% and non-100% agave. I don't think I would buy this again unless there was a major discount on it. Glad I tried it, it was rather unique.
