... versus ...

[jasonrm72]

I decided to do a side-side tasting of Casa Noble Reposado and Casa Noble Single Barrel Reposado. But why stop with one taste test?
We can use this thread so that everyone can do their own side-by-side comparisons of comparable Tequilas.

Here's my first:


The color of the two are virtually identical. The scent of the Single Barrel (Barrel #403, Bottle 26/360 "The One") seems a tad bit sweeter, but again they are very close. The CNR had a slightly fuller feel and more of a buttercreme flavor. The CNSBR feels a bit thinner, but keeps the classic Casa Noble flavor. Where the CNR finishes with a mild warmth, the CNSBR ends a bit drier in addition to the pleasant warmth on the tongue.

It's obvious that these two Tequilas are closely related, but there are enough variations to make them stand apart. Though it was hard to pinpoint exactly what without the side-by-side comparision, and it was still tough. I just may have to suffer through it again sometime soon.

P.S. I definitely need to find a better spot to take the pictures
