NOM 1632 | Blind tasting with AMM: This was an interesting blanco with a slightly different profile that leans into some creamy and earthy notes. On the nose, cooked agave comes through first, followed by a noticeable lactic quality that gives it a soft, creamy edge. Citrus adds a bit of brightness, while black pepper brings some lift. There’s also a vegetal note in the background that keeps it grounded and true to the agave. On the palate, the cooked agave carries through, joined by that same lactic character, which adds a smooth, almost creamy texture. Earthy notes become more pronounced here, along with a solid mineral backbone. Black pepper adds a touch of spice on the finish, tying everything together. Overall, this is a unique and well balanced blanco with a creamy, earthy profile that stands out from more citrus-forward expressions. It’s a thoughtful pour that rewards a slower sip.

NOM 1632 | Tasted blind. Aromas are a bit muted but I pick up some olive brine and sweetness. Flavors followed suit but it kept me sipping on and on. Finish was quick with mint and some melon.

NOM 1632 | Blind tasting via AMM: Loads of fruit overpowering this one. Aromas and flavors deliver cantaloupe and banana. It’s got a nice long spicy finish. Extra points for value.

NOM 1632 | Quite closed off on the nose compared to other blanco’s in the flight. This is a very rustic, earthy nose with rocks, gravel, mulch, mint, intense black pepper, pumpkin, and a lactic character. On the palate is anise, bell pepper, vegetal notes, rocks, lactic, cinnamon, pumpkin, black pepper and licorice notes. This is an austere blanco, one that I enjoy quite a lot actually. It’s challenging and unique with a real grungey character. The nose opens up with a bit of airtime and the palate has a nice interplay between the bitter earthy notes and sweet cinnamon spice/pumpkin notes. Additionally, the arrival is viscous with a nice finish.

NOM 1632 | There’s a lot going on with the aroma here. First a blast of caramel/vanilla, which makes me think these agaves are very well cooked. But then the aroma evolves, and the top of the glass is a lot different than the bottom. Top: cooked agave and licorice. Bottom: eucalyptus and vegetal (like raw green bell pepper). Definitely let this open up! Flavor is slight vanilla, anise, and agave. Finish: sharp, dry, kinda short. This is a real/rustic tequila that shows another side of agave not commonly found.

NOM 1632 | Great upfront agave aroma. Less on the taste and a little flat on the finish. Overall a great tequila at $35.

NOM 1632 | I had this one a while back I don’t recall which NOM it was from but this time it is NOM 1632 and it’s pretty decent for the price “$40 in NY” clean taste and smell nothing offensive on the nose or pallet. Only thing I don’t like is once I opened bottle and took the plastic off the top the cork doesn’t stay down sealed on top it just keeps opening they really sent these out with the wrong sizes corks and once you open them they just don’t close lol. Maybe mine is just an anomaly but I’m not gonna get another bottle and see. But for the price it’s a decent sipper
