Ron Zacapa 23 Year Old Solera Rum, 1 L
Regular price £69.99
Zacapa 23 is a super-premium rum made from a blend of rums aged between 6 and 23 years old. It is made from only the sweetest first crush virgin sugar cane honey, rather than molasses, and is aged in a series of casks that previously held American whiskies, Oloroso Sherry and Pedro Ximenez wines in a unique process called the Sistema Solera. The secret of Zacapa the ageing process that takes place at high altitude (2,300m above sea level) in the cool air of the Guatemala highlands. This helps slow the ageing process, which creates the final balance between the aromas and flavours extracted during a slow process. Zacapa has been awarded first place five times in a row at the international Rum Contest* and is the only luxury rum in the Rum Hall of Fame. In January 2012, Zacapa was named one of the World's Top 100 Most Valuable Luxury Brands by the World Luxury Association. Warm and smooth on the nose with sweet hints of vanilla, honey, dried fruits, smoke and orange peel. Intense, complex and balanced on the palate: vanilla, dark chocolate, nutmeg, raisins, dried fruits, fine oak with a long lasting finish Read more.

Description
In eastern Guatemala, 229m above sea level, lies the town of Zacapa. Founded in 1876 as a bustling railroad stop, the resident population was soon joined by travellers from around the world, leaving a legacy that can still be seen today in local surnames. In 1976, the town reached its centenary. To celebrate this historic event, Guatemala's premier rum-producing company decided to create something special. By harnessing expert knowledge gained over many years, a unique premium spirit was born: Ron Zacapa Centenario.
