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

Got this one at a rum tasting, pretty awesome I must say!
Lekker bruine rum, smaakt erg heftig. zachte kokosnoot smaak
The taste is a good combination between a good brandy and a fabulous rum👌🏻
Was introduced at a local bar and its sweet and with much flavour. Love the vanilla in it and some coconut?

I like drinking this while smoking a cigar. It is a tad overpriced but it tastes ok with a bit of ice.

Remember that time you were throwing back Malibu Coconut Rum pina coladas, and Malibu with pineapple juice, like you were drinking Koolaid? And all of a sudden, you feel like you got punch in the face and land on the floor. Well that's the same feeling you'll have if you sleep on this Zacapa 23. It's not for the faint of heart.
Zacapa 23 is made by some kick butt Guatemalans that had the courage to age their molasses in sky (7544 feet above sea level) for some where between 6 and 23 years (who cares), and it shows. Zacapa 23 is smooth, but strong. Strong, but drinkable. It's that beautiful color you see when the sun sets and rises. Yes, it's a sweet (rich) sipping rum, but if sipping is not your thing, order it up in a mojito. The bartender may give you a strange look in some parts of the world, but that's because he wants you to stick to the basics...like Bacardi Mojito. Live a little, people.
