Ron Zacapa XO Rum is produced in the highlands of Guatemala where it is distillled from fresh cane juice. The rum is then aged from 6 to 23 years at 7544 feet above sea level at 62 °F (17 °C) using the solera process. The solera aging process incorporates barrels that previously held American whiskeys, sherries, wines and Cognac
The unique Ron Zacapa XO glass decantur features an impression of a woven band around the middle, which is in reference to the original hand woven palm leaf petate bottle cover that covered the bottle

A very strong influence of cognac, and since I do not really enjoy cognac sorry, a seven it is!
Costs as an XO cognac, but cognac is much more difficult to produce.

Definitiv ein hervorragender Rum, süss, mild und komplex. Der Rum schmeckt für mich nach Honig, Vanille, Schokolade und nach Früchten. Sehr feiner und angenehmer Geschmack, ein Traum.

I love the thicker viscosity of the Zacapa XO that coats the palate providing smooth complex flavors with a light burn. Great when it is cold, warm, with a cigar, or on special occasions.

Very similar to the 23, a little less sweet and a little oaky.

I'm not getting a huge amount of complexity. As this is pretty expensive in the UK you would expect a lot more when spending this kind of money.
It is a very nice rum and if you can get it for around £60 ( and I was lucky to get it doe this) go for it but as it's generally available around £85 or more than there are better rums around that price mark and much better for even less than that.
They have done a good job with the packaging and I truly love the decanter bottle but it's a shame that it is not reflected in the contents. It's just too close to the 23 in flavour profile which doesn't warrant almost double the price.
