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.

Looking past the dodgy age statements and judging just on the taste I found this a little too sweet for me. On the nose you get hints of chocolate, sugar, toffee and caramel (lots of sweets!) The first taste is very smooth with more chocolate and cinnamon coming through.
I can see why many people love this rum since it is very easy to drink and goes down smooth but I just find it a little too sweet for my taste for an everyday sipper but would use for a dessert sipper on occasion.
A mucha gente le encanta Este Ron e incluso a mi criterio lo tienen Sobrevaluado, efectivamente es un Ron con Carcter pero pero para su clasificación y premios es Bastante dulce y Vainilloso, no por ello pasa desapercibido para los paladares más exigentes.
Wonderful flavors, perfect to sip! Notes of coffee, chocolate, honey that stays on your mouth for a long time!
A truly superb rum, very sweet and soft. Dark brown sugar and molasses.
A nice rum for special evenings with friends and beloved ones 👍
A very sweet and subtle rum. My personal favorite.
Est et reste un de mes rhums préférés. Facile à boire, un des premiers que je fais toujours goûter à mes invités
Sweet and balanced. Nice as a regular to go rum as it is good value for money.
Rum ricco di sapore, inizio si sente alcool ma alla fine grande sapori e dolcezza.
Rimane un icona dei RUM.

A friend of mine swears by this, but to each his own. I think it is a bit on the sweet-side and lacking a bit of complexity. That said, it isn't *bad*, it's just not great.
