Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

This is one of my first sipping rums and although I am a rookie I can see what all the hype is about.. beautiful dark carmel color, nice sweet toffee notes on the nose, long legs..and when you finaly reward yourself with a sip.. you cant help but go for another..sweet velvety flavour with hardly no burn is what you get.. can't complain. A must

if you hadn't previously drank the original RZ 23, you would be forgiven for thinking this was a superb rum. However it's a poor cousin to its predecessor.

I did expect more for this rum, as all is talking so good about it.
It is really good for a mixer, not straight up for me.

Excellent, très doux, belle complexité

contrairement à ce qu on peut croire, il n a pas 23 ans d age... sa maturation est effectuée selon le système solera sur 23 étages.
ceci dit un bon rhum de melasse, plusieurs epices sont détectables, le gout du rhum qu on aime est bien présent. pour moi il manque de caractère pour recevoir un 8.

Yes it tastes great. No it is not a genuine aged rum. The XO version is IMO less sweet and more what this rum should be, but the 23 has been sweetened to make it more appealing to the American palate. Also, this is not a 23 yr old rum, it is a Solera blend of aged rum the OLDEST of which is 23 yrs, the average age is closer to 6-8 years

Výborný reprezentant značky - velmi sladký a karamelový.

This is a fine, sweet, nice rum, but..
I bought this rum due to the great reviews and the adverticed awards.
The reviews and awards seam to be for a rum bottled many years ago.
I find this a very good rum for the price, but it is not what the hype want you to believe. I did however just buy this as a pressant for a non rum drinker (or rum-starter) it will not let you down as a good start.

Très plaisant, moins sucré qu'un diplomatico mais très agréable au nez et en bouche

If your going to buy a special rum then Ron Zacapa pushes all the right buttons!
