Ron Zacapa XO Rum is produced in the highlands of Guatemala where it is distillled from fresh cane juice. The rum is then aged from 6 to 23 years at 7544 feet above sea level at 62 °F (17 °C) using the solera process. The solera aging process incorporates barrels that previously held American whiskeys, sherries, wines and Cognac
The unique Ron Zacapa XO glass decantur features an impression of a woven band around the middle, which is in reference to the original hand woven palm leaf petate bottle cover that covered the bottle

They have done a great Job but more effort has gone in to the bottle and the Marketing than the Rum itself
I like it I drink it £82 in UK 2021

Too much added sugar and almost gave me a toothache from the sweetness. Not worth $100, id say more like $55.

Possibly the best bottle of rum on the market. When Zaya sold out and became mass produced I had to find a replacement. This bottle is very pricey but worth every cent. It’s delicate and delicious.

There are lots of good rums. This just happens to be a great one. I love this stuff. A bit pricey to drink on weekends, but holidays and special occasions I break it out. Wish I could afford to drink it more often. Absolute must have.

This rum blows all my friend's minds. Very smooth not so much burn as it is a warm sensation. Being on the pricier side it is reserved for special occasions.
Being on the more difficult side to find if you see it for less than $100 buy it instantly.
Side note: i have an old style bottle from pre-2016, getting a new bottle to see the difference.

Love the rum - but Have a hard time telling the difference between this and Zacapa 23 - both exceptional - I just have a hard time paying the extra sticker price for the XO

It is a great experience is sipping this beauty. It is complex yet smooth. The finish is long and reminds you for a good while how good this rum is.
Smooth , complex , perfect on the nose much better than the 23 . Lingering rich mouth feel great for a collection

It is rich with coffee notes and a little tobacco.

Not being a huge fan of Zacapa (too sweet) I was not expecting this full bodied smooth rum with great depth.nut brown color, smooth taste of mild island spices blended together elegantly. Recommend drinking neat.
