NOM 1599 | Out of the no. 7 Cazcanes, this is maybe my favorite. The nose is full of barrel with much oak, vanilla and caramel. I get dried fruit, plum, banana. When the nose is high in the glass I get butterscotch. On the palate, I get sweetness from agave, caramel and vanilla.

NOM 1614 | This is such an enjoyable sipper with absolutely no burn at all. The aromas are strong while the flavors have lots of little subtleties of the barrel notes. This one definitely needs a little time to open up. Nose: cooked agave, caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, oak, cinnamon, baking spices. Palate: cooked agave, caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, oak, cinnamon, baking spice, chocolate, and butter. Such a very enjoyable sipper with great barrel influence.

A palate of oak, caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, agave, pepper. A mellow sipper, sweet but not too sweet with a long sugary finish.

Wonderful sipper with great barrel notes

Earthy, mineral flavors, and agave forward taste come through…though the nose is more agave/fruit and ‘rain’ water finish. Cazcanes in any expression does not disappoint. One of the few brands to cause Fortaleza fans to reconsider their stance.

Nom 1614, price brought down the score

Absolutely drop dead amazing!! This has such an appealing nose, it screams agave and gives off some alluring notes from the barrel influence. Perfectly balanced sweetness, alcohol and flavour, this is elite. It’s not cheap but spend the money, I promise you’ll be happy.

A03/22 — another winner. Amazing nose! Some apple, agave, pepper, and bitter oak. Short finish but overall tasty treat. 87 NOM 1614 (New Distillery) first taste—yum! This was a single barrel so I’ll have to wait for the regular release. But it’s tasty! A touch of cheesy funk on the nose but just a touch. 88

Malolactic and agave on the nose, more agave and barrel and less Parmesan on the flavor. Mild peppery on the back end but good finish.

Nom 1599 Nom 1614= 87

lots of barrel influence good bridge for whiskey drinkers to tequila

Gorgeous nose. Chocolate covered cherries all day. Juicy mouthfeel and a delicious, complex flavor of berries, chocolate, almond, caramel. Sweet but not overly. Oak is restrained too. Looong finish that turns a bit raisin at the tail end. Minus a couple points for price point, but a terrific anejo.

Nose- Apricot, honey, hints of red wine, dried fruits Taste- Agave, spices, fruit/orange/apricot Finish- velvety smooth, heavy body great lingering agave and pepper. The pepper is mild with long legs. Outstanding Anejo!!

Nose: some agave, oak, orange peel, vanilla, caramel and nutmeg Flavor: barrel spices, oak, citrus, cooked agave in the background, sweetness of brown sugar and cinnamon spice Finish: medium and starts peppery and ends a little dry with some bitterness.

Very good. Agave, strong caramel and candy apple taste up front, pans pepper on the back end. The caramel and barrel does not over power the agave at all. Can definitely see myself listing to jazz music and sipping this by the fire place. Review Had to come by a month later and re-review it cause this is absolutely amazing. Lost points for value, but this has become my absolute favorite regular proof anjeo. Very good

Well made Anejo, sweet cooked agave, along with caramel, vanilla and light heat

Lot 1

Nice rustic presentation, sisal twine around the neck, hand written lote number/bottle? Tasted and nosed from a jarrito this has a very neutral aroma with oak spice dominant and some roast agave. In the mouth this is roast agave, caramelized sugar, barrel spice of of oak, burnt sugar from char and some agave spice of roasted pepper. Subsequent sips reveal a nice bold character that maintains throughout to a nice prolonged finish.

NOM 1614 | Light nose, slight agave, slight oak, palate Oak, nutty, char, nutty, citrus aftertaste

NOM 1614 | Fun flavor, but not worth the price. It’s more like bourbon

NOM 1614 | Smells AMAZING. Fruity with a hint of caramel and something sweet, but not too sweet. Just the right amount. Tasty. A tiny bit of a bite but in a good way. Goes down smoothly. So flavorful. I can see why ppl rave about this one!

NOM 1614 | Batch No. A72402

NOM 1599 | NOM 1599 Batch: A04/22 Nose: Oak Berries/Cherry Chocolate Cinnamon Flavor: Oak Chocolate Butter Vanilla Cinnamon Finish: Long, peppery finish with hints of raisins or dried fruit. Excellent Anejo

NOM 1614 | Aroma: light sweetness and barrel, some vanilla, not much initially, opens up after ~15 minutes Taste: there’s the agave, light caramel, barrel at the end. Finish: long, pepper, coconut (?) This tastes and finishes better that it starts
