Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Several years back, a friend and neighbor had been talking of his Ron Zacapa 23, giving it high praise. I had to make the step beyond the cheap rum mixed with a variety of other ingredients to make a smooth, palatable drink.
The first difference was the sweet aroma, still the detectable essence of molasses and vanilla. I consumed it mostly neat. Now, in my later years, I like to add an ice cube to add to the smoothness.
Guatemala knows rum.

A dark and relatively full bodied rum with a fairly rounded taste. Not as balanced as it could have been. Lacks a litte sweetness for balance from my point of view, leaving the result a bit too sharp in taste from the dominance of the alcohol over sweetness. It is a minor imbalance, though, and the rum is quite enjoyable when at around body temperature.
The price point is too high in my country for what this rum is, but a decent rum all the same.

Zacapa is the perfect for the sweet tooth (extra sugar was added in). its great as a sipper or a mixer. personally i like it with a couple icecups maybe some bitters.

solid beginner rum too to show to friends.

This is the first rum I've had that I could actually drink straight. Good stuff!

Dejlig varm og fyldig god efter smag
Altid et godt valg til gæsterne

I just love this ron. He is sweet, tasty and the perfect ron for a relaxed evening...

This rum is very good, smooth but just slightly too sweet. It is one of my go to's

Even tho the price is a bit high here in Québec, it is worth every penny. Smooth and long lasting flavor paired with a finale of sweet aromas.

A wonderfully flavorful rum with a nice afterburn.

Very good smooth rum for drinking neat or on the rocks.
