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.

This one tastes like I would expect real rum flavour should taste like. A little sweet, full flavour, some hint of plum and vanilla. A nice one - but not special.

Klassisk 1. Rom.
Meget sød, og uden dårlig eftersmag. Den eller Diplomatico er en god starter rom 🤔

Darkish. A bit sweet. Strong taste of alcohol. Better than I remembered it.

Slightly sweet at first, gives way to a full bodied aftertaste and a smooth finish, very nice

Bestemt en go rom prisen kan diskuteres. Ikke i den helt søde ende.
Dark and tasty but like others have said, it is a little to sweet.

Me encanta este ron por su suavidad y dulzura al paladar. No suele faltar en mi casa.
Nice and smooth. Great aroma. Great finish. Great taste.
Other commenters here have really ripped this rum. I actually enjoy its molasses, oaky, rather alcoholic and chalky flavors. But it should be noted that I generally prefer Armagnac to Cognac because of the former's earthy qualities. It was recommended to me by a quality, local merchant who caters to a heavily Latin American customer base. I hadn't delved into its manufacturing details, as others here evidently have done, so my comments are based exclusively on my drinking experience, and not on an intimate knowledge of the product. I enjoy a few ounces every now and then, sometimes with a smear of top-grade chunky peanut butter on crackers, a few dried apricots, and Camembert or Morbier. Makes me happy.

Nice rum for an everyday sip. Some coffee notes a good match to Cuban cigars

An easy drinking sweet rum with a warming flavour. The alcohol comes through when drinking straight.
