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.

Un rhum qui trahit la tutelle du cognac dès le premier nez et pas n'importe lequel, car le Zacapa est élevé en fût qui a vu grandir du cognac français. C'est dans cet opulent héritage que grandissent les rhums de la maison Zacapa mais en solera, toujours. Et c'est bien grâce à ce process typiquement espagnol, répandu en amérique centrale, que la bouteille peut arborer fièrement un âge de 23 ans. Mais le résultat n'en reste pas moins délectable avec un nez vanillé passant en bouche par le caramel.
Le rhum Zacapa Solera 23 est une valeur sûre, bien calibrée qui ravira tous les palais. Néanmoins pour un rhum affichant 23 années de maturation au compteur, l'amateur averti sera vite déçu par le manque de complexité de cette liqueur.

Enjoyed this one a lot around the campfire last summer. Just bought my 2nd bottle.

For its price and all the hype around it, I find this rum quite overrated. It is bit harsh and I find similar but much more pleasant (and chaper too!) rums like Plantation Guatemala or Kraken.

If you have sweeter tastes, or friends who reject drinking neat spirits, then Ron Zacapa is for you. Ron Zacapa Solera 23 is certainly a sweet rum, but has more than enough flavor to back it up.

A great and dependable rum. Always enjoyable and easy to come across.

Ret sød, og ganske udemærket, men uden den store dybde og fylde, anelse sprittet.

I find it to be sweet and the flavor somewhat flat. I expected a bit more out of it after having some other solera rums. Overall, a decent rum but probably not worth the price.

In terms of price / quality ration this is my overall winner so far. Straight, for some maybe a bit too sweet but still very good.

My first "expensive" rum that I tasted. Loved it and started my rum adventure from this. Since then I find it still has a good taste, but it's too sharp.

rhum de type hispanique on retrouve la douceur. Il y a aussi un côté boisé.
Très complexe et agréable à déguster
