Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Its quite good but i believe it is perhaps a bit to sweet. And well it was a bit to expansive. But its still goes easily in your month.

Wanted to try this for a while, heard lots about it.
It's a nice tasting rum, perhaps too sweet for some, in moderation it's fine.
Almost like a liquor rum, not a bad thing.
Would recommend.

Just got myself a new bottle. After the XO this one is great!

Appearance: the color of black tea with a copper tint, very oily.
Smell: baba with confectioner's sugar, loose and sticky from the impregnation, dark cane sugar, cherry syrup, boiled dry fruits - pears, raisins and prunes. In the background - shades of preheated in the sun cracked the board, pine tar, cracked old rubber, the hot sugar syrup (with a share of unrefined cane sugar), cooked vegetables (carrots and potatoes).
The smell is sweet and pleasant, but his background is not too rum, vaguely reminiscent of whiskey, although it is closer, perhaps, to the lower reaches of the Roma Demerara.
The body is rounded, flowing and smooth, with a minimum burning, very pleasant.
The taste is sweet, with a large number of cane sugar, candied tropical fruits like passion fruit and banana. Ingestion felt a lot of creamy caramel and baking spices with weak hints of pineapple flambéed with brandy and soaked prunes.
The aftertaste is long, full of vanilla caramel, molasses, tobacco and dry spices like clove, cardamom and nutmeg.
The result ~ a bright harmonious taste with a predominance of sweet and spicy notes; the taste is certainly distinctive, rum, and complete with a soft, comfortable, without aggressive dry spices and bittersweet viscosity at the end. Dry, by the way, in Zacapa 23 is developed in the second half, but the sweetness she drowns.

Body and aroma great. Smoothness impression not worth the extra cost. Bacardi 8 just as good at half the price.

What can I say, that is not tell, great aroma and flavor, especially with habano (cuban cigar)

A nice medium caramel colored rum. Vanilla notes strong in taste and smell. Low rummy/alcohol taste or smell. Thin viscosity. Would make a great rum & coke; just guessing because I drink rum neat or on the rocks. A good mid range rum.

I enjoyed it as let's not be to harsh, it taste good/ok, but compare to some other rum.. I can't even really define a clear aroma in the nose or taste, it is just too sweet to clearly feel anything special.

I just started to get involved in Rum culture but i can say that this one is really good rum (tried roughly 20 varieties so far).

Fresh Veal Fillet Steak with Foie Gras and Pedro Ximenez Sauce + a glass of Ron Zacapa 23 Solera is absolute joy for your taste buds!

Aunque en mi país le ha ido muy bien es más gracias al mercadeo que a su sabor.... Eso no le resta para nada el placer que se siente al probarlo. Todos aquellos que se denominan fanáticos del Ron deben tener uno a la mano
