Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Nose: Brown sugar, vanilla, some dark fruit, a little bit of tar.
Palate: Caramel, chocolate, alcohol soaked cherries, vanille. Very liqueurish and thick.
Finish: Spices, clove, vanilla, mokka.

I bought this on recommendation from the liquor store staff when I was still quite new to rum and had no idea about "Spanish style" rums and their affinity for added sugar. And while it certainly isn't bad, I can say that this particular style doesn't really suit my preferences.
I can understand why cigar smokers like Ron Zacapa as it seems robust and bold enough to co-exist with tobacco smoke.

Warm, nice, a good company...
Nice bottle. Dark amber colour in the glass.
Nose: orange, vanilla, honey, fudge
Taste: sweet honey, dried fruits, orange peel, caramel, vanilla, chocolate
Smooth and full of flavour. Good value for the money.

Enjoyed this rum a lot. Well worth the cost of the bottle.

This was the first rum that got me into sipping. I used to just drink rum and cokes, and never got into sipping rum. This was recommended to me by a friend, and it was great. This is what got me into rum, good price, great smooth taste. Its on the sweeter side, which i prefer something a little bit more rich in flavor.

First introduced to itvin my local. It has some sweetness to it ( if you don't mind that) but the taste is exquisite. Always have a bottle at home.

Makes a fantastic MaiTai when paired with Appleton Estates and Pierre Ferrand Curacao. but not a great sipper. Too sweet and based on the other reviews, it's because they and sugar. I'll stick to it mixed.

Nicely balanced, perfect from start to finish - an evergreen.

Great nose, smooth taste, and nice finish. A nice treat, and a great sipper.

Again I just had some last night around a fire. Great taste and love the darker color. One of my staples that I keep around.

@Simon, bien doux ! C’est chiant de devoir écrire cinquante caractères.
