I often confused Zaya and Zacapa early on from same distillery. They are similar both being sweet, but Zaya has wonderful lingering notes OC cinnamon, vanilla, and spice. Very nice and subtle, I will try it again soon, my first tasting was the original Guatemala blend, this rating is the current Trinidad version.

Sweet flavors of caramel and vanilla with a little smokiness. Good sipper for a reasonable price.
Caramel, nutty, tasty with a smooth finish. Great sipping rum.

This rum is way too sweet for my tastes. Not something I would buy again.
One of the sweeter rums that I own, very smooth and tastes great with Pepsi or coke. Great value if you buy at Costco

Vanilla is in the forefront. Tasty, but there isn't much behind it. It is certainly drinkable and slightly pleasant. I agree with an earlier reviewer that this used to be MUCH better. The move away from Guatemala has rendered this a truly "vanilla" rum. Just like the ice cream.....sort of plain and ok if there isn't anything else available.

I don't know what it is about this rum, it has notes of caramel and vanilla but when drunk straight, it feels like I'm being punched in the face by a bottle of vanilla extract
I may try to mix it with a flavored cola at some point, but I'm definitely not buying a bottle any time soon

Nose is heavy vanilla almost thick like a perfume
Taste isnt bad, its smooth, very thin, theres not much of a finish here. As a previous reviewer had stated " the high end of the low end" thats accurate. Smooth but not much going for it.
