The color of this rum is a rich mahogany by way of deep dark amber. Delightful aroma revealing a sweetness to it.

Tasting it reveals it to be sweet. Very sweet. I haven't tested it scientifically but it tastes as if there has been sugar or some sweetening agent added to this rum. And that's a shame. It just seems a tad too sweet and thus I deduct a point. Otherwise this would have been a solid 8...perhaps a 9. However this does not make it a BAD rum. Just a little too sweet for my personal tastes. Take it for what it's worth. It does qualify as a sipping rum HOWEVER I would consider it one to have as an after-dinner treat. A dessert rum if you will.

NOTE: I rated the Ron Centenario 25-year a "9" and still am of the opinion that it is a great rum but the 20-year seems sweeter to me. I realize that sometimes rums will vary from batch to batch and perhaps my 20 came from a batch that was sweeter than intended.

On an aside, this might be a good rum to use in rum balls. I haven't tried it but it seems to be well suited for such a purpose.

The sweetness seems to be aimed at the American consumer. If sugar or some sweetening agent were indeed added, I wonder what it would have tasted like without it.

Minder meget om Zacapa 23 solera.
Der er tydelige noter af fad, chokolade, vanilje og karamel i duften.
Smagen er meget krydret. Spritten prikker på tungen og er overdøvet af fadsmagen.

This one is easy going, spicy, smooth and colorful. One of my favourites. This is what you expect when you think of a rum. Wood, a bit fruits and a bit sweetness you cannot dislike this one. Word!

Not as flavorful as some others that I have enjoyed, but still a pleasant aftertaste. Improved as I sampled more over time. A touch more flavor for me, and I suspect the rating would be bit higher.

Sweet, smooth, easy... boring...

...i like the complex pot still types more, so a 6/10 is what i'll strech it to.

When you think of how much more a bourbon/scotch/whiskey of this quality would cost!
Mellow and complex...not overdone....vanilla not caramel. Slow sipping...serious.

Sehr schön cremig, etwas Schokolade und Karamell, süss, aber nicht zu sehr. Langer Nachhall. Insgesamt für den Preis super.

Z celé řady Centanario je to zatím můj favorit. Velmi komplexní.

Ein schön ausgewogener Rum, der mit Karamell und Schokolade aufwarten kann, mir eigentlich ein wenig zu süß, aber er macht es durch seinen runden Geschmack wieder wett. Daran kann man sich gewöhnen :-)
