NOM 1545 | Nose: Not a real fuerte nose, but a small initial blast of pepper and cinnamon. Some light colored tree fruit and faint vanilla. Agave front and center. Followed up with herbs, wet grass and minerals. Flavor: Pepper heat, some salinity, buttery, silky agave with the faintest bit of bitters. A touch of almond cream? Finish: Medium long caramelized agave and pepper notes. A pleasant sip.

This was a nice, light juice with raw agave, pepper, citrus, vegetal and herbs like mint. The agave was present with pepper, cucumbers and cinnamon.

My only gripe is a little too much alcohol in the scent. Daily oily body, minty peppery flavor and that spicy kick typical of a highland blanc that lingers on your tongue. Awesome deal for $23

NOM 1545 | NOM 1545. I get some clay and raw agave on the nose. Rich mouthfeel, a little pepper, short finish. Easy to sip, but not complex. The Anejo is my favorites expression.

Muestra embotellada en 2011, NOM: 1433 Buen cuerpo, aroma fresco a agave y cítricos. La nota alcohólica es fuerte con sabor a agave, cítrico y debo entrenar más mi paladar pues detecto también un sabor especiado que no se exactamente como describir. Tiene un remate frutal que dura bastante.

NOM 1529 | From my first initial pour, no resting: The aroma reminds me of champagne. Strong almond aroma, cherries, banana, caramel, vanilla. The agave aroma blends so well with the rest that this one of the most deliciously floral blancos I’ve ever inhaled. The taste of the agave punches on the tongue followed by earthy pepperiness, green apple, fruit, smoke and nuttiness. Jalapeno comes to my mind as well. The finish has an anise and pineapple-esqe taste to me as it fades and linger. I scored this at a pre-covid price but at the current price I still think it’s worth every cent.

NOM 1545 | Lot L1950D1L1 bottled on july’2020. Mineral notes mixed with cooked agave notes, menthol?!, barely any agave sweetness, although it is slightly present in the finish, which is short to medium.

NOM 1545 | Maybe a to much heat for some, but I prefer this over many expensive, more bland ones. Maybe not the best Blanco I have ever tasted, but for the price it is a great Tequila.

Aroma:Bit of cooked agave, not a lot going on here. Taste:Bit of agave,pepper, lots of heat, medicinal and just not that good,not very smooth and lacks any complexity. Calle 23 Criollo is my number one favorite blanco of all time .But this 23 blanco is uninspiring.

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

Review #227 - Calle 23 Tequila Blanco

Calle 23 is a fairly new kid on the block. The master distiller is a woman, Sophie Decobecq, who was a bio-chemist by trade and worked in South African agave spirits before moving to Mexico.
