Ron Zacapa XO

helt fantastisk, de to ekstra års lagring på zacapas flagskib, har virkelig gjort underværker.
super rom.

Denne rom gør det bare så meget bedre end sine småsøskende (15- 23 års). Her får man en rigtig god oplevelse, hvor smagen er kompleks omend stadig blød og rund.

I love the 23 yo. The XO is the natural evolution and the corrected version. Very very round with caramel and oak with the smoothest finish you can wish for. Priced at ~99€ I walked past it many times until I stumbled upon an airport deal for 65€. In the future I'll be ready to pay the full price.

Straight up or 1 ice cube

The rum is smooth, however for the price I was expecting more complex flavors, more from the sherry cast (a better experience in the taste and nose).

Don't confused it is great, smooth, there is some sweet and elegante flavors there. But talking about Guatemalan rums I prefer Botran 18 rather than this one for instance.

I think there is something in the Zacapa solera system than do not convince me at all, but it is a good choice for gift or when you want to have something packaged beautiful in your table.

Finally, for the price you should drink it straight or on the rocks (with just one big chuck ice)

Wonderful rum... but looking at the price I expected something very special that I did't find.

It's a good rum. I like the nose and the taste is smooth and sweet. Good aftertaste. If you're into RZ, this is the rum for you. But the thing is, its good but not that good. You can easilly buy a better rum for less. Personally, I'm glad that I got to taste it before I went out and bought it.

I try this one in rum tasting last week and I must say that this rum was the best I've ever tasted. Simply GREAT and if you have the opportunity to taste it, don't hesitate.

i wanted to see what the hubbub was all about with this Zacapa version. A friend found it for me in Princeton, NJ for about $75 which sounds like a good price. It was packaged very nicely in a presentation box that I felt guilty throwing away. It really is a nice, beautifully smooth rum that I'll enjoy sparingly so it will last longer.

Ah le XO....
La beauté de la bouteille est à elle seule une promesse.
Le breuvage est à la hauteur. Sans excès, sans démesure dans le sucre, tout est équilibré. Le nez est délicieux, les aromes sont là subtils et complexes, on a envie de les garder longtemps en bouche. L'ensemble est délicat et raffiné.
Parmi mes meilleurs rhums.

Super Nice bottle with box and super good content! this bottle you share alone or with your best friend. Super to have in Rum collection. After testing Zacapa Royal I go back to score 9!
