I cant say enough good things about the balance this reposado has to offer. The white oak is notes are among the best I've tasted in any tequila, but never in combination with such amazing agave notes! There is a good dose of toasted sugar feel and very robust just-cooked agave pencas. Yet, this reposado presents a very pure and straightforwards tequila character.No wonder this tequil has made SO MANY friends already. Simply put: top 5 in my all-time list. Maybe is just the way it goes down so easy. Maybe is just the way it trickles down the sides of the glass. From start to finish, CNR is one reposado you must try before deciding your top reposado on the list.

Tasked out of double ball glass. Casa Noble was a pleasant sipper. Not my favorite, but something I'd have again for sure.

Aroma: Hints of caramel, cooked agave, and wood.
Initial Taste: On the tip on the tongue, a thin mouth feel and very sweet. No bitterness.
Body: Agave, vanilla, caramel, smoke, and wood. Lots going on. Maybe too much for me.
Finish: Of medium duration with no alcohol burn.

Casa Noble Reposado is aged for the maximum number of days allowed while still being able to label the spirit as a reposado: 364 days. As such, I find Casa Noble Reposado drinks more like an anejo. The nose is wonderful. Cooked agave, cinnamon, vanilla, and floral notes are all present. It's light and sweet in the mouth on initial taste, but I find the nose much more powerful than the flavor. Its medium body finishes smooth after resting with more agave and spicy vanilla on the back end. This is a hybrid tequila that falls between a reposado and anejo. More woody than most reposados but retains more agave flavor than a lot of anejos. All in all, Casa Noble Reposado is worth trying, especially for anejo drinkers.

I walked into a small market in a small town in California...it looked like Latinos or Mexicans owned this little shop. I was just going in for a taco, when I rounded one of the aisles and found it filled, top to bottom with Tequila!!
They had everything there ranging in prices all the way up to $300. The old guy there behind the counter recommended Casa Noble Reposado. It was $38.
This Tequila is a joy to experience. Everything from the nose, to the mouthfeel, flavor, and finish...Highly Recommended.
Let it breathe a while.
I also love the Anejo, which is VERY rich and delightful.

Casa Noble Reposado NOM 1137 Tasted 1/13/07. The tequila is a pale yellow color and has an intense floral, earth, fruit, and vanilla aromas. Once you get past the intensity of the nose, you can smell mild notes of spice, caramel, and smoke. On the tip of the tongue the tequila is mellow and soft and feels thin and oily in the mouth. While the tequila has a hint bitterness, it is actually fairly sweet and syrupy. Now onto flavor. The flavor has intense fruit. The intense flavors are followed by moderate agave, floral, and vanilla with mild earth and spice. The tequilas finish is a medium duration of flavor followed by a slight tingly alcohol feeling. Overall, I rated this tequila at the B level.
