Guatemala | Aged | 40% ABV | Column Still (1-4)

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.

Good sipper as expected. Made of sugar cane and not molasses. Great balanced. Tastes it's honey, butterscotch and vanilla.
Pretty sweet so it's a good sipper.
Do not mix it with coke. :)

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.
