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.

Awesome dessert! Soft, sweet (almost too sweet, actually...). Caramel, some vanilla, brown sugar. Love it!

Nice colour, yet not much else going on. Lots of alcohol fumes, a singular sweetness and harsh finish. I swear this used to taste better when I first started on rums.

I like that this rum is also aged in sherry casks, not only in the usual bourbon casks, you can clearly smell that. And it does have some good aroma intensity. The age labelling "23 years" however is misleading, as it is a blend of rums up to 23 years old. Their minimum age is just 6 years. So according to normal age declaration standards, it should be called Zacapa 6-year.

Iโ€™ve always admired to packaging for Zacapa, but never been a big fan. However, this is a really good sipping rum.

Balanced flavor and aroma. Mild, slightly sweet, a little bit more sweet than Dictador 20. Very good for me.

Havent tried the XO yet, this one is extremely famous and it tastes ok, really sweet. But having tried real rums from Appleton, this one seems flat in comparison. Great for beginners.
