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

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.

After many a Havana club & coke Zacapa 23 was the rum that started me on drinking rum straight. I hear the critics about the actual age etc. Still to me its all about taste and and Zacapa has it in abundance. My go to sipping rum.

This is a good every day rum. The one you would have a glass (or two) after a days work. I find it wee too sweet, but this is corrected in the XO.

As with every premium drink you're buying a brand and a experience. I love the Zacapa brand and the bottle. You'll never go wrong with this rum.

1-2 pieces of ice to cut the sweetness.

Beautiful Amber Color, sweet but not too sweet sugar cane and vanilla blend, as well as a very decorative bottle. No matter how many times I try this, it never gets old for me, it's a true classic that'll never die for me! I can always go back to this Rum and remember just how damn good it tasted. Whether on the rock, in Cola, or straight in a glass, I recommend this for any person looking to try a REAL rum. :)

i really didn't know what to expect and was a little apprehensive about spending $70 plus on a bottle! It was an amazing experience and was great to drink on the rocks and even with a splash of Cola! All the spices seemed to pop out as you let it sit for a few minutes! A must have for any home bar!

I had high expectations on this one but it couldn't fulfill them. QRM Beats this one. It's a nice rum tho and it has a lot of flavors to discuss with your friends but something is missing.

Had this at Bradstreet Craft House In MPLS. So smooth and very light run with little burn at end. The flavor is insane and really powerful for such a light body rum.

Dans la meme gamme que matusalem, millonario...
Trop rond et sucré pour en apprécier toutes les subtilités

He would win a popularity contest. But is he this great?
One would expect yes.
It has a rich taste of sweetness and spices, and for the price tag he sure is a pleasurable Rum.

Jeg ville have rated den højere for 2 år siden, da jeg selv var ny inden for romuniverset.
Den er sød og behaglig, men mangler kraft og fylde efter jeg har smagt en del andre rom.

I bought this rum duty free about 8 years ago and has been my favourite since. I have come to the conclusion that if you are going to drink rum the best rums are the ones you can drink on the rocks.

This rum has subtle spice and smoky flavours and should only be drunk with ice.

Skal man starte et sted i rom verdenen kommer man ikke uden om denne flaske med bastskørt. En okay rom, med sødme og go smag.
