Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Spicy and strong, with many different flavors. I would definitely buy it again.

my favorite rum so far, along with angostura no 1. I tried the zacapa xo separately and alongside with the 23 and the 23 got just a better price taste ratio. the taste for me is well balanced with a sweet ending.

good slipping rum with a good price. I would put it in the middle

If this were 30$ a bottle I’d give it a 7…. But at 80$ CAD a bottle I was expecting a much more balanced rum. This is very harsh especially compared to some cheaper counterparts (Havana Club 7 years for example)

Worth a taste but disappointing in my opinion….

Guilty pleasure as there is plenty sugar added however Zacapa is a great bottle to pull out at parties if "the guys" wanna drink rum.

Notes of Caramel, vanille, cinnamon and dried fruites.

Way too sweet, way too flat.
I had low expectorations about Zacapa, and I was still disappointed.

A great smooth rum, a little bit of sweetness flavored with caramel and vanilla. Definitely a must try, I find it a little expensive, would compare it to El Dorado 15, but would definitely choose ED15.

Pil jsem hodně dávno a tehdy mi rumy ještě moc neříkaly. Nyní jej mám nachystaný k opětovnému ochutnání a zhodnocení. Tak uvidíme :)

Sweetish, soft, balanced, not alcoholic, without any development throughout testing. Suitable for drinking in company, but expensive a little bit.

Ничего особенного, дороговат, переоценен. Чуда не случилось.

This rum has added sugar and it shows, but it opens up nicely with an ice cube or two to become a pleasant sipper. If you’re inexperienced and intimidated by rum, but looking for a “gateway rum” to cut your teeth on, this one may fit the bill. I don’t like the deceptive 23 on the bottle because Solera is actually a blend of multiple rums where 23 is the oldest but the average is 8. Not a deal breaker by a long shot, but stuff to know in the spirit of full disclosure. You could do worse.
