Ron Zacapa XO

It has a beautiful color, nose of ethanol, honey, and molasses. It has a unique mouthfeel, starting off sweet, then spicy, finishing dry.

It's definitely worth the sip and would recommend a dram if you spit this at the bar or offered to by a friend.

The packaging is beautiful and the bottle is very elegant. It will look great on my bar but sadly will spend a little more time there over some of the other bottles I have.

Edit* just tried this back to back with plantations 20th xo and it really made me appreciate the Zacapa that much more.

This is one of the rums that always has to be on stock in my cabinet. It is certainly not very cheap and there are other cheaper rums wich I also rate with 10 points but if it tastes the way it does it deserves 10 point.

The best Rum ive ever hat.
Absolute perfect taste. For me 😊
Sweet and soft.

It's been one year since my introduction to Rum. Although I don't have a lot of experience with Rum yet (tasted around 10 rum in total from 7 different brands), I must say that this bottle has been my favorite one (also most expensive) so far next to the El Dorado 21. Very smooth, sweet in the mouth (honey) but not too much, complex aftertaste (notes of sherry and cognac)

I'm a fan of Ron Zacapa, so I figured this one would be amazing. Not quite. The 23 is better. A bit more bite than the 23, but that's about it. The notes are relatively similar.

It is a great gift for a friend who never tried a sipping Rum,
But for me, there are better & less expensive ones out there.
I have a sealed bottle waiting in my cabinet...

This is an excellent rum, a little pricey, not sure if the 70$ difference between the XO and the 23 year old Zacapa is worth it, The XO is better but little pricey, is smoother and you can taste all of its flavors a lot easier

Enjoyed this with a medium bodied cigar to bring in the New Year. Sweet, smooth, vanilla flavor, goes down nicely.

Die 8 Punkte gebe ich mit Bauchschmerzen gerade noch so für das XO Soleragebräu Das von Jahr zu Jahr schlechter wird, Nachdem ich den neuen Zacapa Royal für 220 Euro gekauft habe und mich über diesen teuren Schrott sehr geärgert habe ist jetzt Schluss mit neuen Zacapas,die können Ihr Zeugs selber Trinken,Ich kaufe nur noch alte Zacapas ohne Solera solange man noch welche kriegt. Der XO mit 23 jähriger Lagerung ohne Solera Misch Masch ist um Welten besser.
Wer die alten Qualitäten nicht kennt wird es vielleicht noch eher akzeptieren,aber Weltklasse ist Das nicht mehr

Mega flot flaske, lækkert indhold! En rom man imo skal have i skabet på et eller andet tidspunkt
