Ron Zacapa XO

Fine rum that delights the palate with hints of sugar cane and notes of oak, with smooth undertones.

Color is rich oak, light mahogany. Nose is complex with a butterscotch majority as it sits. Lights up lol the taste buds on the palat, yet smooth. Nice bite on the finish with a lasting satisfaction. A quality rum for the cabinet. Sip it only.

I went to Guatemala to try this rum and couldn't help bringing some back home :-)

I tried it straight and requested some ice to try it when it was cooled down. My partner in crime preferred it straight but I have to say the flavours really come out nicely when it is a bit cooler and it gives your tongue a better chance to distinguish the full palette.

Sweet and smooth, not super flavorful but very drinkable. A bit of papaya and stone fruit on the mid-palate but the taste is dominated by molasses. Short sweet finish. No spiciness or alcohol burn.

Super sweet so you have to like it sweet and also super smooth. Fantastic cognac aroma mixing with vanilla, nuts, cinammon. Nice dark colour.

Solera commerciale e ti tendenza, ma dal gusto troppo leggero e con poco carattere rispetto al prezzo, pecca di profondità, adatto a palati alle prime armi

Neat had a great nose... but not my thing... on the rocks softened the taste and made in "enjoyable"...

From my experience, the Ron Zacapa 23 is better than this and this feels like it’s trying to hard to be amazing but just falls short

Javították a 23 hibáit, az alkohol sem lóg ki már, de ennek megkérték az árát...

Since I tasted the 23 in the distillery in Guatemala, I always wanted a bottle of the xo and it has not let down in any way. It's more complex and has sublime flavours.
