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.

Muy bueno, no tengo una muy dilatada experiencia pero se trata sin duda del mejor que haya probado por el momento.

No sure on the age but its a good after dinner drink and very sweet. Add some ice and a little lime and its a good cocktail.

This one is quite good, but still not to the point where I would like to sip. Rather with mixer as the share of 23 year old rum is very low

Had this sitting by the bay in St Augustine at a hotel that is always investigated for hauntings (Casablanca Inn). Maybe the history and ambiance make it better. I enjoyed this alright straight. It did open up after about 10 minutes. At first, it was a bit harsh on the lead, then finished nicely. I usually prefer rum neat, but a cube of ice took off some of the initial edge. It didn’t have a lot of depth to me. It was solid and tasty but not overly memorable. Glad I was able to buy it by the glass not the bottle.

Great marketing. A little too sweet for my taste. I rather have the XO

Tonight's Rum: Ron Zacapa Centenario 23. In Honour of this being International Rum Day, I thought I would tackle Zacpa 23. One of the best rums in the world. If you've never experienced, and it is an experience, this one Rum not to miss. Aged at 10,000 feet above sea level in Guatemala, and at 23 years old, it is a remarkable Rum, worth every penny. On the nose, it's all honey and fruit. Most notably apricot, orange, and banana. On the pallet, it's orange notes stand out. It's oaky, rich, almost thick. Still, it's very well balanced; sweet and tart. On the throat some Rums, the cheaper ones, have a bit of warmth or bite as you swallow, Zacapa pretty much disappears, leaving honey, cinnamon, and molasses flavor behind. 10 out of 10. Great with dark chocolate or simply neat. Always served at room temperature, neat.

The Zacapa 23 is a good beginners rum. It’s sweet and very easy to drink

Here is my review of this world famous rum. There are already so many of them that it is not even worth to write too much.
Colour: Quite dark, very dark amber
Smell: After pouring into a glass, a strong alcohol vapour will "exhale" on you. This is quite surprising on rum with 40%. I recommend letting it breathe for at least 15 minutes, but it still irritates the nose a bit. I smell vanilla, caramel, slightly chocolate, spices and woodiness.
Taste: For me, it's better than smell. From the beginning, you can feel the sharpness on the palate, which will soften over time. Zacapa is slightly sweet. The taste is vanilla, butter biscuits, dried fruit, oak wood and spices (cloves, nutmeg).
Aftertaste: Medium long with a sweet finish.
Overall rating: 8/10
Conclusion: For me, this is a good rum, but it is more known than that it would be so good.

Not really worth the pricetag, the only good thing is that you can find it easily everywhere

Smooth, deep sugar cane bouquet and taste. The deep amber color invites to dream. Flawless
