Ron Zacapa Centenario Solera XO Tasting note

By Miguel at 2011 Oct,12 in Tasting , Zacapa

“Really easy to drink. So sweet and floral. A great rum from Guatemala.”

The stunning special release from Zacapa. This Guatemalan classic won Gold at the International Rum Festival, and won the Platinum award in the Super-Premium category in 2002. This is an incredible extra old rum, which picks up awards wherever it goes.

This dram has a old oak-like color.

Nose (89): powerful. brown sugar, vanilla, sugar cane, wood, floral.

Palate (92): smooth, oily. sugar cane, citrus, brown sugar, vanilla, wood.

Finish (90): very long. brown sugar, sugar cane, vanilla, wood.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Ron Zacapa Centenario 30 aniversario with 90 points over 100.
