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.

I like drinking this while smoking a cigar. It is a tad overpriced but it tastes ok with a bit of ice.
Very smooth to the pallet easy to go down quite enjoyable

Tried only a sampler, but it was very nice, little bit to sweet and syrupy for me, but very tasty and aromatic.
My wife who is not that much into rums loooved it.
Will have to buy a bottle to rate it properly.
edit :
Did buy a bottle, and it wasnt as good as i remembered it. I got that sweet alcoholic aftertaste thats not my thing really, altough i cant say its bad.

This was my first on the shelf and it filled its place. Before I found other favorites, I enjoyed every opportunity. Still holds I think, with a good sweetness.

Lack of layering, but maybe it is a good choice for making HighBall or adding to ice cream
I have used half a bottle of this Ron in ice cream

I see a lot of comparisons between Zacapa Solera 23 and Zaya Reserve, but to me they are completely different animals. Both are smooth, but Zacapa Solera 23 has a richer more full-bodied flavor to it with a slight sharpness. A light hint of smoky caramel it finishes with a sweetness that belies the full body. An excellent overall rum.
This rum just gets better and better. It's the best option on my latest Carnival Cruise and there are some bartenders that KNOW how to pour a good double. I can't get enough of it! Rating Upped!
