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

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.

NOM 1137 | Found NOM 1137 on shelf in local restaurant and sipped. I usually don’t do well w/ high proof, but this was good.

NOM 1607 | Astral Blanco NOM 1607 On the nose is a faint chocolate aroma mingled with some light citrus and pronounced alcohol. The taste and finish are similar with an additional baked cocoa powder and some light cinnamon with a good amount of light roasted agave. Overall I would say it tastes unobjectionable and additive free and it pricey fairly too. Perfect for mixing.

NOM 1607 | Nom 1607 Bought with a coupon , 15 bucks. Poured in glencarin glass, just opened Appearance-clear Aroma-ethanol, floral, dried chrysanthemum, green vegetable Taste- round agave, olive, some butter popcorn in the back, tasted savory, heat builds up as it progresses through the palate. Unique tequila, seems like it can be better. Gonna try it in a blind tasting…

NOM 1137 | A quality high proof for $36 is a great thing! It makes a great Margarita.

Cooked agave, peppery, but burnt. Alcohol burn was very apparent. Sip, and burn after. I can see it’s value as a mixer. But, not a sipper for me

I was surprised with this one. Bright agave with a slight citrus and black pepper finish. The price on this one is also a good value (at least in my area) and I recommend it for shots or margaritas.

NOM 1607 | VERY botanical on the nose. A little punchy upfront, then the agave taste, comes out and smooth finish

NOM 1607 | Strong citrus smell. Definitely a mixer type of tequila. Good value for that reason.

NOM 1607 | I’ve had two bottles of the newer stuff in the short stubby bottles, which is 80 Proof, and as a mixer, it’s excellent. I like it as much, probably more than Altos. I’ve bought it for $29, but the average here is $32-35. IMHO, this is an excellent value as a quality mixer. This brand is a huge sleeper that many will overlook.

NOM 1607 | NOM 1607 Revisited the same bottle. There is a strong chemical smell and flavor to this blanco. I noticed it last time but, it didn’t seem to bother me as much. It does now. It’s overwhelming. Not sure what’s going on here, but it was nearly undrinkable this time around.

NOM 1607 | Peppery with a smooth delivery, albeit an odd metal taste like a Hornitos. Vegetal hangs on the throat.

I really hated this. Tried it at a bar. Unfortunately didn’t get the nom off the bottle. Not sure if this shitty bar refilled it with something else but it tasted terrible. Couldn’t even drink it. Total chemical and diffuser taste going on. Probably could hide it in a margarita but I wouldn’t.

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
