Guatemala | Aged | 40% ABV | Column Still (1-4) Distilled
Ron Zacapa 23 Solera Rum was created in 1976 in the highlands of Guatemala, where it is distilled in a copper-lined column still from fresh cane juice before solera aging.
The 500 year-old Spanish Sistema Solera method is used to age Ron Zacapa 23 in white oak casks. This results in a combination of rums aged between 6 and 23 years.
The current Ron Zacapa 23 bottle features a woven band around the middle, which is in reference to the original hand woven palm leaf petate bottle cover that covered the bottle.

This one is a very good rum. I agree that it is sometimes overrated, but besides its flaws and the confusing name (23 years) it still is a very good rum, perfect as a starting point. It is very sweet, but I don’t find it excessive. It goes perfectly well with some cakes or pasties
This tastes ok, but the additives come through. Not worth the elevated price.

Recently tried this while traveling maybe shouldn’t have been highlighted as top shelf but I can understand that this would be popular common rum. I would not go out of my way to purchase but wouldn’t turn down if offered.

Tal vez porque venía de probar el Zacapa XO, esperaba más. Quizás es de esos rones que tienes que darle tiempo para que te enamoren. Se siente muy bien de todos modos, Claro que volvería a tomarlo

For me the Zacapa 23, is the best Rum in his price range ( quite affordable). Perfect for old fashion, even neat ( with a few blocks of
Ice in summer)
This is a very good sipping rum: sweet and goes down smoothly.

Super smooth. A bit sweet. Good sipper. PQR so so. A bit pricey.

It is everywhere and non usual rum drinkers fancy it, because it is one of the expensive bottles at a medicore bar. It is super basic on taste, without any deep charecteristic and emotion. Spiritless (as in no soul, not 0% alc) rum. Never tried the other models, but this one I'd never buy myself for sure!
