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

Af half the price of the Abuelo Centuria (my absolute favoriete rum to date) it get's pretty close in smell and thickness. Not quite as rich in taste but XO still lingers longer than most. Smoother in the mouth than the 23 Zacapa its a must have bottle for a serious rum drinker.

9 great rum

Beautiful bottle and great rum. A little on the strong side. Great for that special moment that you want to relax or share with special friends.

Tastes best after a few minutes and with large ice cubes. Not my favorite, but good enough to be at the top of my list.

Very dry, similar to a strong scotch.

Schön weich, etwas Orange und Schokolade. Würzig, kräftig, Karamell, angenehm süss. Langer Nachhall. Im Vergleich zu anderen aber zu teuer.

Un de mes meilleurs à ce jour

..som den 23 åringen fra Ron Zacapa. Kraftigere ettersmak og noe sterkere "spritsmak". Ville heller gått for 23 åringen

It's really an 8.5
