Thick and oily in the mouth, this has the signature El Pandillo back end that lingers on the tongue and palate for several minutes. Roast agave, some minerality, great mouthfeel. Really enjoyable sample tequila.diva, thanks.

NOM 1414 | Citrus light aroma green apple like. Peppery with some burn with clear agave flavors. Not a lot of legs, but still has body. Lingers on the tinge and lips.

NOM 1414 | Nice nose. Cooked agave and fruit. A touch of vanilla. Citrus, primarily lemon and lime. The taste is well balanced with sweet agave, vanilla minerals and black pepper. A little bit of alcohol bite. Finish is a bit watery. Overall, this is good.

Nose: faint agave cooked / hint of lime / vanilla/ anise /lemongrass / baking spice / very faint cream soda Taste: sweet agave cooked / vanilla/ cinnamon/ apple / melon/ orange peel / anise / spearmint/ cream soda Finish: watery wet low viscosity mouthfeel withs cool water effect / lingering sweet agave, anise, vanilla and a hint of cinnamon and mint / a very nice sweetness carries through to the last swallow This blanco is from NOM 1499. There’s some good balance to the taste profile but the nose is weak…still good smells on the nose, just very faint. Enjoyable though simple.

Aroma of cooked agave up front and serious with a tinge of vegetal, vanilla, cotton candy, and very slight ginger notes. Flavor of agave, licorice, vanilla, black pepper and slight green pepper. Viscosity is a bit too watery for my personal preference, akin to Mijenta but still hokds flavors to the finish.

Tequila General Gorostieta NOM 1414 Aroma: Initial notes of crisp and raw agave, white pepper, herbal and fruity notes. Definitely let it open up to enjoy its majestic organoleptic profile. You’ll be delighted! Taste: Cooked agave is prominent but also complimented by some herbal touches of sage/lemongrass and Los Altos petrichor. In addition you will taste sweet remarks of green apple and pear that evolves into a slight bell pepper/spearmint bite to it. Overall the profile offers a Mineral & Tannic sensation. Slightly briny notes at the end. Medium finish This is a blanco tequila that must sit in your bar! Highly recommended

NOM 1414 | NOM 1414, GGBCO2281, bottled on 22/11/22, tasted on 4-25-26. Aroma: light sweet cooked agave, light acidity, hint of fruitiness, hint of earthiness, hint of pepper spiciness, hint of green vegetal notes, hint of minty sensation that I rarely experience in NOM 1414 blancos. Palate: confirms aromas perceived, good sweet and sour balance, however, the minty sensation becomes stronger as time goes by, quite similar to some NOM 1579 blancos. Finish is medium to long, light sweet cooked agave, minty sensation with pepper spiciness persists. Note to self: drink this tequila sooner than later after serving.

NOM 1579 | Aroma: very minerals, lots of mint slight alcohol. Mint really opens up. A little lime as well. Hints of spearmint. Taste: lots of alcohol upfront. Smooth. Mint really sets in with little mineral. Tiny bit of lime at the end Finish: finish is silky with a little burn. Of course very mint forward

This rating is from a NOM 1499 bottle. Agave forward aroma with pepper, mineral and earth notes on the palate. Lingering pepper and alcohol on the tongue. I will have to try the newer version.
