Casa Noble Tequila
Smooth. Refined. Casa Noble.
I will admit – tequila isn’t my favorite liquor, however,
after tasting the smooth taste of Casa Noble Tequila, I’m changing my thoughts
on this. This is totally not hype!
In college, drinking Tequila was a rite of passage. It was just the thing to do. A shot here, a shot there, a shot with your
fraternity brothers or sisters was just the norm. That peppery feeling of hot liquor going down
your throat rapidly was just normal. God
forbid you actually took
the time to savor the flavors, it was just too
intense.
Recently the good people at Casa Noble sent me a bottle of
their Crystal Tequila. At first I
thought they were simply trying to flatter me with my namesake, but after
tasting the tequila for myself, I’m convinced they’ve got a good thing going
here.
I’m certainly a sipper when it comes to drinks, I don’t like
to get $@*&face when out with friends, so tequila has never been my go to
drink. However, every girl does love a
properly made Margarita.
So after giving it a try neat – or in lay terms “straight”,
I found the tequila to be of high quality and smooth on the palate, unlike some
more known brands, that I will fail to mention here.
Bottom line is: Casa Noble is tops when it comes to high
quality tequila that doesn’t burn. Step into the new age and away from those
college memories of the burn. I totally recommend it and give total kudos to
the Casa Noble brand. They rock!
Below are a few cocktail recipes for your drinking pleasure,
although a simple mix of fruit punch and OJ isn’t a bad starting point for a
homemade cocktail, throw a banana wheel on the side and see what your friends
think :
