Guatemala | Aged | 40% ABV | Column Still (1-4)

Ron Zacapa 23 Solera Rum was created in 1976 in the highlands of Guatemala, where it is distilled in a copper-lined column still from fresh cane juice before solera aging.

The 500 year-old Spanish Sistema Solera method is used to age Ron Zacapa 23 in white oak casks. This results in a combination of rums aged between 6 and 23 years.

The current Ron Zacapa 23 bottle features a woven band around the middle, which is in reference to the original hand woven palm leaf petate bottle cover that covered the bottle.

This Zacapa is one of the most known from the Zacapa Family. Nose: It has Sweet aromas with a bit of chocolate smell and fruit aromas at the end. Just add 2-3 cubes of ice and let it feel some air for about 15 minutes and as soon as you have the first zip there is a very nice oak feel to your Palate. You can feel Its Brown Sugar Molasses presence as well. I’m a bit curios as to why it’s called Zacapa 23 when its average age does not seem to be 23 years. Being a nice rum it surely does not compare with the other reserve lines within the Zacapa Family and lacks of the body of other finer rums. In general this is a Good Rum to share with your casual friends, however I would look for other options when it comes to share it your intercircle closer ones.

I guess the added some extra sugar. Really I dont get the "hype" surrounding this rum.

Don't ask me why. It's the smoothness, the richness which just makes it one of my favourites.

I've come to find out that I like all rums made through the Solera system. Very smooth with a rich aftertaste and warm fuzzy feeling in my chest. Preferred on the rocks.

Taste of tobacco, honey and nuts.
Spiced rum and easy to drink but the taste is not equivalent to the reputation.

Pros: Overall good rum. Not so sweet.
Cons: I don't like too much alcohol-smell of liqueurs. One can also buy better rum for 2/3-3/4 price. A little bitter for my taste.

I was expecting more from this rum. It wasn't bad at all, but there was nothing memorable about it. Just an ordinary rum.
