Bottle purchased in Crete several years ago. I’m rating the old Zaya 12 year (note bottle neck in photo) before Diageo bought them and ruined this rum. Pours a very dark brown. Aroma of butterscotch and molasses. Mildly sulfur and sweet. Bananas and chocolate. Such a pleasantly mild palate with a pronounced vanilla. This was a great rum back in the day.

Zaya is so perfectly smooth it will change the minds of those who claim they 'don't like' rum. It is perfect for sipping and one of the best tasting rums I've found yet.

Skvělý na dlouhé večerní popíjení. Nejvíce mě v chuti utkvěl dub a vanilka. Navíc jsem nezaznamenal ani náznak lihové ostrosti a je krásně jemný. Jeden z nejlepších sladších rumů, které jsem měl možnost testovat! Doporučuji vyzkoušet!

One of the sweeter rums that I own, very smooth and tastes great with Pepsi or coke. Great value if you buy at Costco

Zaya is a nice smooth sipping rum. It may be a little sweet for some but it is not over the top in sweetness. It is silky smooth and has little afterburn. This lack of a bite may be pleasant to some but others may judge it as a rum that is missing some kick. I can see it's score vary but I really like it

Yes this is the shit. Affordable, delicious, sweet, caramel, in some light nearly red in color. Way too easy to drink. This stuff spells trouble for me

First rum with this app. A smokey taste, with a hint of vanilla. Good straight up, or on the rocks. Excellent for sipping.

I try a lot of rums and keep going back to Zaya for its sweet and complex flavor at a reasonable price. 12 years old and less than $30 is a bargain!

風味は非常にエレガントで、鞣し革や、ウッドのニュアンスが特徴的です
甘めなので、葉巻、モンテクリストと一緒にやると最高です。

Muy bueno en términos de un Ron del lado dulce.
Mejora muy bien con la oxidación
