My Tasting Notes: The tequila is a clear color and has an intense earth and floral
aromas. Once you get past the intensity of the nose, you can smell moderate notes of
spice, smoke, and pepper. On the tip of the tongue the tequila is mellow and soft and
feels thin in the mouth. While the tequila has a hint of bitterness, it is actually fairly
sweet. Now onto flavor. The flavor has intense agave and earth. There is also
moderate spice, smoke, and floral attributes which are followed by mild fruit. The
tequilas finish is a medium duration of flavor followed by a numbing alcohol feeling.

Other Info: "The Casa Noble tradition starts from a 1700s hacienda surrounded by
Blue Agave
The ways and customs of a country's population, regardless of its geographic location,
have a strong relation to their foods and drinks. Meal preparation and presentation,
and its time to share them, have played a relevant role in how most cultures become
known throughout history and around the world. This is owed to the customs,
traditions and sentiments found in the rituals that surround eating and drinking. A
perfect example of all this can be found in this one word: Tequila. Tequila is one of
Mexico's most significant contributions to the world. This beverage means so much to
our culture, because many of our people's highly regarded values—tradition,
perfection, pureness, togetherness, sharing—these same elements were the building
blocks in the late 1800s from which Casa Nobel began its own quest to produce and
offer the best tequila in the world.
Casa Noble's roots can be traced as far back as the mid-1700s, as a hacienda
surrounded by a vast land where only one thing was to be found: Blue Agave
(Tequilana Weber), tequila's one and only source. In a few years, this particular
hacienda became one of the most industrially developed facilities of the region; its
lands holding close to 1 million agave plants. The whole region recorded a 6 million
total. At the turn of the century, this hacienda had a daily production capacity of ten 66-
liter barrels.
By the early 1900s, the beverage known as "vino mezcal" or "vino tequila" began
growing in popularity and acceptance as a straight drink, unfiltered and undiluted.
Tequila was kept in wood barrels. After fermentation they were carried by mules
directly to the cantinas in Mexico City and the nearby Guadalajara. People from all
social levels enjoyed tequila with the same enthusiasm, and soon it became a tradition
to drink at a wide variety of gatherings.
Tequila remains deeply rooted in our people's most meaningful and special events.
Today tequila is present at weddings, birthdays, family reunions, christenings,
anniversaries, banquets, etc. Songwriters have also paid homage to Mexico's finest
export in many ballads. Passion and tequila go side by side among our people's lives,
celebrations and meals.
For us at Casa Noble, making tequila is a ritual that reflects a deep respect for all the
mysticism and tradition that this beverage engendered for the Mexican people, and
that now has extended to many other countries.
Tequila Casa Noble holds in each and every one of its bottles the essence of our
culture, the flavor of our land, the passion for perfection, an obsession to produce only
the purest and authentic tequila. Nothing more. Nothing less.
We are proud to offer a product that gathers all these elements--and to share it with
the rest of the world." -Casa Noble Website
