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

Een klasse prostituee???

Ze ziet er beeldig uit, ze ruikt zalig, ze proeft naar meer, maar...
Beschrijving klinkt alsof het hier gaat over een prostituee. En toch geeft deze rum je dat gevoel.
Je geniet ervan, maar moet je hier echt € 98 voor betalen?
Deze Z XO heeft een hele mooie donkere karamel kleur, traant beeldig en in de neus krijg je een vleugje eik en rijp fruit, kaneel, tot zelfs een zweem van rijpe banaan.
Bij het proeven voelt deze spirit fluweel aan, toetsen van verbrande karamel, tabak, koffie en dit alles met een zoet fruitige toets. Zalig, maar zit hier een rum in van 25 jaar?

Alweer het Solera systeem, maar deze blend heeft de laatste 2 jaar (na Solera) op cognac vaten gelegen. Is dit de oorzaak van de typische droge lange afdronk?

Zou ik het er nog eens aan geven? Volmondig ja!!!
Wat een verschil met de Z 23y!

The first impression is that you have a quality product in your hand. Nice box, beautiful bottle and what about the nice color of this divine liquid.
This rum is really smooth, not too alcoholic with an ideal afterburn.
Well balanced with a good aftertaste.
Added on my wishlist !

Le meilleur rhum que j'ai bu jusqu'ici. Saveurs et aromes sont complexes. Melange de miel, caramel, vanille et fut de chêne Il ressemble beaucoup au 23 solera. Je le conseille a tous.

There is many a rum I like, Plantation Barbados 20th Anniversary, El Dorado 21, 15 and more. This just pips them all in my opinion. Amazing complexity and perfect balance. Every time I drink another rum I compare it to this. Def head and shoulders above the Zacapa 15 and surpasses the 23

One of the best

Smooth, delicious, always good. Everyone likes this rum. $100 a bottle, but probably worth it. Nice bottle too, makes me feel fancy.

uno dei migliori rum qualita/prezzo
Buon rum profumato e delicato. Il lungo invecchiamento si sente con forti aromi di legno bruciato.
Ottimo!

Smoothest of the smooth
