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.

Slightly more heady due to being a bit stronger than usual. Smokey and not too sweet

At the first sip I took of this I was blown away.After sipping about half the bottle I was a little let down.It got pretty boring.This is an excellent rum for beginners as it's easy to drink.It reminds me of diplomatico reserva but it's not quite as rich.Satisfied that I finally tried this I probably won't repurchase.Priced at $44.99 here at my local liquor store vs $29.99 for Diplomatico.I'll stick with the Diplomatico.
Edit: After trying this on the rocks I change my rating to an 7.5 it's definetly better on the rocks imo.
