láhev - obal 10/10 bottle
vůně 17/20 smell
chuť 30/35 taste
jemnost 14/15 smooth
cena/výkon 0/20 much for money
71%

Vyvážená chuť s lehce dřevitou vůní, pije se dobře, bez pachuti, nebo špatné dochuti. Bohužel ničím nezaujme, to je ale u Zacapů tradice. Rozhodně nedoporučuji kupovat celou láhev.

Très très bon rum, plus doux que le Diplomatico Amdassador. À essayer si vous avez l'occasion!!!

- ve vůni je okamžitě poznat typickou Zacapu, nasládlá, čokoláda, kokos, citrusy a dřevo
- chuť nasládlá, 45% je znát, ostřejší, závěr dřevitější, jemně nahořklý a částečně čokoládový

Very nice taste indeed. But the price on this rum is a joke. Drank rum that taste better than this for a much better price. Rum for hotshots who drives BMWS and has no friends. The bottle shape suits old ladies.

I tested this one on Birka Cruises rum cruise on the Baltic Sea, and it didn’t catch me. Maybe I’m unfair when I rate the XO higher, but right now I’m very into the English styled rum and there were some really good ones to taste on that cruise.

A bit like the Zacapa 23 but sharper with an oily roundness.
Pineapple, banana and fudge.
Good stuff!

One of the smoothest rums I’ve ever had. Great mello taste from start to finish.

One of the best rums I tasted. Smooth, deep, creamy, sweet, Solera, long taste. You can’t compare this with the XO, which is really different. But the Royal pricy. If you like this rum, you might also want to try Ron Esclavo XO.

Zacapa Royal consists of rums aged in American whiskey barrels, delicate sherry and fine Pedro Ximénez wines. Their blend is aged in precious barrels made from the wood of the trees of the four French forests called Le Bois du Roy™ (Allier, Nevers, Vosges and Tronçais), which used to belong to the royal family and have been protected since the 13th century, when the King of France himself imposed strict restrictions on logging. These are blends of rums 8-30 years old bottled at 45% ABV.

Bottle: Truly luxurious with a beautiful gold cap packaged in a casket.
Colour: Dark mahogany.

Nose: There's quite a lot of alcohol at first, which surprised me for such an old and luxurious rum. It mellows out after a while, but I recommend to let the rum sit for at least 20 minutes. In the aroma I recognized caramel, raisins, cocoa, coffee, nuts, tobacco and tan oak.
Taste: Dense, creamy and strong. It is a medium sweet rum. The taste is again caramel, vanilla, dark chocolate, pepper and a slight bitterness of oak.
Aftertaste: Long.

Finish: In my opinion, after summing up the aroma and taste, this is a rather snobby affair where the price, in my opinion, does not reflect what you get from this rum. The taste difference between XO and Royal is very small, but the price is 3 times that.
Rating: 9/10

This best Zacapa for me not only for the price.
Smooth and rich characters with long final 👌
