Den här är riktigt god men inte så pass mycket godare än XO så att det motiverar det dyrare priset.
A total and complete rhum. Extra-dark colour and a sweet, balanced taste
Zatim nejlepsi zacapa co jsem pil. Plna a dlouho trvajici chut. 10/10
Säger inget mer om den mer än att den är kunglig. Sen att Zacapa XO är snäppet godare, men båda får en 10:a
It has similarities with Zacapa XO old version but further than age it is also a bit sweeter & more fruity surprisingly!! It has the best complexity compared to other similar with long aging rums as Quorhum 30, Malteco 1987, Diplomatico Ambassador & El Dorado 21. It is aged in bourbon, charred Whiskey, wine, cognac & cherry barrels and all this makes it very unique, rich & round!! The scent is close to Metaxa Private Reserve (new version). Roayal is a touch better but with 4 times up the price thats ridiculous expensive!! In conclusion it is my favorite rum together with El Dorado 25 which is spicier, sweeter and a bit less complex.
Výsledný rum má krásně plnou vůni i chuť čokolády, pečeného kokosu a mandlí. Závěr je pak správné dlouhý, nasládlý, exotický. Vážně královská lahev.
As all Zacapa's more on the sweet side, but if thats what you are looking for then this is worth of having even with this price.

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.

Old and matured Zacapa, very balanced
9
/10
out of 10
First of all: you need a Glencairn glas for tasting. The nose is much better in this glas.
In a rum tumbler it's not concentrated. And it needs 30min in the glas.
If you drink Zacapas take your time.
Tasted the Royal in comparison with 2019, Aniversario 30 and 2014 edition.
It tastes like the old zacapas. Intensiv, sweet and fruity, with wooden aromas.
It's not as good as the Aniversario 30. The 30 is more mature, more wooden and more fruity in the taste.
It's not as fresh as the XO. XO has a very nice balance between the matured and the young rums.
But Royal is more intensive and heavy.
It starts with caramel, burned sugar and dry fruits. The herbs are less present (same in Zacapa 30). The taste is not as heavy as 30 or Negra, but it's quite elegant. In the middle as it became warm I thought at some point, it's a little bit too sweet. From the sweetness I would say it's at the tip of the iceberg. Then I get some heavy flavours of the toasted cask (wood), but not as much as in the 30th.
I notice also a hint of cherries, this goes in another direction than other Zacapas.
The finish is not very spicy and sweet with caramel, barrel (wood) and dark fruits (not much herbs left).
A elegant and sweet Zacapa but too expensive for me.
2019 is more younger and also heavy, but has more mandarine in the taste. I think it's a good alternative. Buy the 2019 edition now, some years later it will be as expensive as royal I think.
Would rate it with 92 points.
