Guatemala | Aged | 40% ABV | Column Still (1-4) Distilled
Ron Zacapa 23 Solera Rum was created in 1976 in the highlands of Guatemala, where it is distilled in a copper-lined column still from fresh cane juice before solera aging.
The 500 year-old Spanish Sistema Solera method is used to age Ron Zacapa 23 in white oak casks. This results in a combination of rums aged between 6 and 23 years.
The current Ron Zacapa 23 bottle features a woven band around the middle, which is in reference to the original hand woven palm leaf petate bottle cover that covered the bottle.

Say what you want about the process, this is a smooth, adequately sweet beverage that is more than approproate for sipping. Definitely a heavier rum that is nice and warming for a colder winter day.

I like this rum a lot. Smooth sipper. Not too sweet. Need to buy an additional bottle
Teniendo en cuenta su precio y la calidad que atesora es sin duda uno de los mejroes rones del mundo en la actualidad.

Ranked 7.5 on my scale, but the bottles here are never half full. A welcome change from what is normally found at the big box stores.
Dette er sandelig en dejlig rom... kan bestemt anbefales

OK, to be clear, I mixed my rums with Diet Dr. Pepper. It's just how I like my rum. Zacapa was my first introduction to the real rum world (outside of Bacardi and Captain Morgans 1.75L typical offerings. I loved it and still do. The flavor is vanilla, molasses, and fruity. I would put this is the more sweet side by just a little bit. It is not a sugary sweet rum, but it has a perfectly blended "natural" sweetness to each and the complex flavors offer one or two changes as you enjoy it. It is not a Clement 6 that changes every sip in a good way, but it is not a Captain Morgan Reserve that is the same all the way through the drink. I have 9 bottles of this in my cabinet, yes 9 in reserve. It is likely my go to rum when I want something fine, yet not over the top.

This is a very sweet spirit.
Here is the only rum that girls drink neat because of its sweetness.
I believe that there are better rums, but in its style is a good one.
The power of great companies: in Italy this is the only 25+ € rum available in every supermarket or mall, and this makes it very popular as a "top shelf spirit".
Without being rum nerds too much, this is an enjoyable "suave" style rum.
Maybe a little overpriced.

The new Zacapa 23 Blend is tougher and less sweet than the blends before 2012. I find it less balanced too. But my brother prefers the new one, i prefer the old one, but everybody likes Zacapa.
