Zacapa, Sistema 23. A Guatemalan rum.
Drink it in a wide mouth glass. The aroma is incredible! And the taste, superb!
Not cheap. Costs as much as my monthly rent. 900 pesos MXN.
When you want a special treat. Give it a snort.
Been a fan of it for years.
Better or worse than Zacapa XO?
Your monthly rent is only 50 USD?
This is why people retire to Mexico.
I occasionally enjoy an anejo, in a small brandy snifter or one of those weird little Scotch whisky glasses that also concentrates the bouquet.
Also, I like Haitian rum, with no apologies.
How do you drink it? The box it came in suggested with ice. I tried that, but thought it subdued the aroma. And the aroma is awesome.
I have never seen XO. I will look for it, gracias.
Yup. But it ain’t four stars.
It leaves me with extra change to buy this rum.
I haven’t had the chance to try that one, though Botran, made by the same company, is pretty good.
Lately I’ve been enjoying Atlántico Reserva from the Dominican Republic. It has a great depth of flavor.
WOW! And I thought I knew rum.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Zacapa 23 is lovely indeed. My other usual nice rum is Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva. Only drink them neat.
Added to the grocery list. Will report back.
