langt bedre end zacapa 23' perfekt blend af sødme og lidt mere bid, fra de højre % er.
og stadig den fantastiske næse jeg elsker zacapa for.
Den er dog en lille smugle intens end 23 eren, dog ikke den store forskel. Forskellen er at produktionen er begrænset som gør den spændende....

Ron Zacapa Reserva Limitada 2014 er mere intens end solera 23, i både smag og alkohol styrke, som dog ikke mærkes.

Last stage aged in a herbgarden with fennel, anise and coriander.
Heavier and more complex than your usual RZ23 also due to its extra 5% of alcohol.

assez surprenant, même si je n'ai pas trouvé tout les aromes qu'on m'avait promis...
il reste rond et onctueux. a découvrir.

En fantastisk rom som minder meget om dens storebror XO.
Man fornemmer slet ikke at den er på 45%, den er stadig blød og rund med hints af honning og krydderier.
Helt sikker en fantastisk sipper ;-)

Samme sang som 2013 udgaven. En rom som man sagtens kan undvære.

This one is very good and the price was reasonable at $40 for a 1L bottle. Smooth going down but a bit of an after taste. Not as good as El Dorado 12 or Cruzan Single Barrel but definitely worth trying.

An interesting and stronger version of the 23 year solera classic.
Glad to have tried it, but not sure that its gonna be a re-buy. Maybe.

Quite different from the RZ 23. It has a lot of different spices, which makes it a unique experience. Not quite my taste, but interesting nonetheless.

It's a zacapa, but not a typical one

The first smell is like a zacapa, but without the sweetness. There are herbs in the foreground, I must say I don't prefer this notes but I like the mix of them with the sweetness. It's also close to Zacapa 23.
Both of them need some time, after some minutes the smell transforms and they became nice Zacapas.
I still miss the sweetnes with intensiv caramel notes in this edition, that is very typical for zacapas. I think the 2014 edition is younger than other limited editions. Maybe it's as old as Zacapa 23, but it's less sweet.
The taste reminds me of ron botran 1893. There is an orange peel on the palet. I'm not a big fan of this edition, but if you like a less sweetened Zacapa, go for it.
It's closer to natural rum than other zacapas and the only one rum with more herbs that I know is the 20y Demerara 1998 bottled by Artesanal.
