Ron Zacapa XO

SW
had this rum recently

Guatemala | Aged | 40% ABV

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

Die 8 Punkte gebe ich mit Bauchschmerzen gerade noch so für das XO Soleragebräu Das von Jahr zu Jahr schlechter wird, Nachdem ich den neuen Zacapa Royal für 220 Euro gekauft habe und mich über diesen teuren Schrott sehr geärgert habe ist jetzt Schluss mit neuen Zacapas,die können Ihr Zeugs selber Trinken,Ich kaufe nur noch alte Zacapas ohne Solera solange man noch welche kriegt. Der XO mit 23 jähriger Lagerung ohne Solera Misch Masch ist um Welten besser.
Wer die alten Qualitäten nicht kennt wird es vielleicht noch eher akzeptieren,aber Weltklasse ist Das nicht mehr

This one is definitely my number one.
It’s so smooth and after a few seconds comes that boom that hits your chest. Just amazing. I can zip on a glass almost a hour, enjoying every single drop.

I compared this to 4 other great aged rums. While not the best, it wasn’t far behind it. The smooth flavor of this rum keeps bringing me back for more.
You can’t go wrong with it. Drink up my friends!!

Hard to imagine something a whole lot better than this. Sipped neat it's incredibly smooth with wonderful mix of spices, vanilla, and caramel. The lingering aftertaste is just delightful. Definitely what I personally enjoy. Pairs wonderfully with chocolate or a nice madura cigar.

I love this rum. It is sweet with a full mouth feel, lots of vanilla / molasses flavors, very smooth, and a long finish.

Superb sipping one for me. Very balanced taste with sweetness a bit spicy, fruit like. Caramel, some orange. Darker colour. Love it.

Had a chance to taste Zacapa XO at a friends house. Now he is a very good friend that I will visit more often. A straight sipper, smooth, nice body, lingering aftertaste. Not overly complex and no strong spices. Gentle, balanced, sip it slowly and enjoy.

Content a bit pricy for the taste, but I guess the price paid for the brand ...

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.

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

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.
