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.

rather one of my favorites due to the sweeter character, but i wonder if it's from addition of sugars as the sweetness doesn't seem to come from natural distilled liquid affected by oak aging.

still a commendable flavor profile.

it was even better when the price was lesser than now days as it seems Diageo has increased prices too frequently to make this less attractive for my wallet/palate preference ratio.

in conclusion, if you care not for price history and prefer sweeter profile, a good choice.

if you are very experienced and well versed in rum, steer clear!
if you are new to rum experience, do invest for tasting!

SucrΓ© mais pas lourd, bon, agrΓ©able. Toutefois pas exceptionnel. Gagnerait Γ  Γͺtre un peu plus complexe, surtout pour le prix; un peu cher pour ce qu'il offre.

Sweet but not heavy, good, nice. However not exceptional. Would be a little more complex, especially for the price; A bit pricey for what it offers.

Which infact I did, on the same boat trip returning from Norway. I bought the Plantation in the tax-free shop, but Zacapa was the one they had available at the bar. It has quite a strong nose, and a pretty strong burn too. If you are not ticked-off by added sugar this is a good rum to enjoy! It's one that puts a smile on my face anytime.

A great rum for mixing, cooking, or for drinking on the rocks when you have run out of the XO!

Because of it's price point, I only ruby this one on special occasions, but what occasions they are!!! One of my favourite rums, smooth and sweet.....the bottle is always gone far too fast, but always enjoyed.

Sweet, smooth and a bit ordinary for my taste, as well as overprized - going to use the rest of the bottle for mixing i guess.
