Ron Zacapa XO

It is more rum than the 23 year but I think the difference in price is to much between the two. Still a very good rum

Sweet scent, very balanced taste with only a hint of sweetness and a warm full-bodied complex taste. Zacapa is hyped but the hype is largely justified. A great rum.

Forse il top tra gli Zacapa?
Il distacco dai precedenti 15,16, 23 anni è tanto e si sente.
C'è sempre la paura di trovarsi a bere un prodotto intasato dal caramello, disgrazia di alcune annate precedenti, ma, in questa espressione dello Zacapa ci si salva.
Dolce e caramello molto ben bilanciati. Sia al naso che in bocca.
Finale molto lungo e persistente. Caldo.
Da gustare a lungo e con pause.
Molto "appetitoso" e migliora col tempo e l'ossigenazione.
Si può abbinare a cioccolate varie, anche se si rischia di coprirne i sapori "nascosti".
Non eccessivamente complesso, è comunque un prodotto che strizza l'occhio al grande pubblico.
Forse il Re dei rum "commerciali"?

This is about $90-$100 at the stores around here, it's definitely worth it and it's on my top 5 list of best runs I ever had.. Not as sweet as the Plantation XO but the flavor it has can not be matched anywhere else, i love this rum but it's just so damn expensive you might want to save this for those "special occasions"

A few words come to mind...flawless, polished and refined. From the nose to the finish, the aroma of maple and caramel....I almost want to pour it on some pancakes! So far, this is in my top 2 or 3 bottles.

Meen ikke helt så fantasisk som den kunne være... Der mangler noget fylde. Ikke sikker på at det bliver et genkøb

This is a fine blend with a lot of taste. Not to strong but with a nice touch of caramel.
Very nice if you combine it with a good cigar.

Jamais déçu, mes invités sont toujours agréablement surpris par ce côté 'doux' sans être une liqueur. On est loin des rhums qui 'mettent le feu en bouche', celui-ci se savoure, comme la série des Zacapa (23, XO, ...).
La complexité en plus par rapport au 15 et 23 ans. Pour qui peu (veut) se le permettre, pas toujours facile à trouver,

Just sip and enjoy it just doesn't get much better than this one.

Great rum, very easy to drink, but has also character and what a character. Very smooth at the beginning, but if you hold it for a while in mouth, you start to explore all the fragments of the taste. Just try it.
