Overview

Zacapa XO is a unique balance of complex aromas and flavors resulting from the exclusive blend of reserve rums. We hand select rums aged between 6 and 25 years in the “Sistema Solera.” Older and younger rums are then blended as they age in a sequence of barrels that previously stored robust American whiskeys, delicate Sherries, fine Pedro Ximénez wines and finished in French oak casks which previously aged Cognac. Zacapa XO is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks and pairs beautifully with dark chocolate and desserts.Nose: Balance of mature toasted oak, burnt caramel, dry roasted nuts, marzipan and orange peel with a delicate fruit deep note at the end.Taste: Balance of sweetness, fruit, spice and spirit. Long, smooth and sweet with dark cherry, chocolate, date, prune with sweet oak spices of clove, vanilla and cinnamon.Finish: Lighter notes of dried mango, raspberry and ginger on the finish.

My favorite drinking rum so far

"I compared it to Zacapa 23 and found that although it costs twice as much, it is definitely not twice as excellent. Still, I paid $100 for 750mls because it is an exceptional deal, so I bought it for Christmas to give to family and friends. My family cherished it. It seems to have subtle undertones of leather, vanilla, and a shoe store. No aftertaste; silky, smooth mouth feel. I prefer it in a snifter or a small thick glass with a lot of ice."

— Leonidas A. (5/5)

A Top Performer.

"It costs three times as much as my benchmark rum, the imperial Barcelo from the Dominican Republic, but it tastes way smoother, more delicious, and complex. It almost has the flavor of a fine cognac without being sweet. I think this is one of the best rums in the world, and everyone who has tried it at my house has loved it."

— Saint U. (5/5)

A Rum that is in Top-Notch Masterclass

"This Rum from the Zacapa House is quite good. A full nose is accompanied by a deliciously rich flavor with lots of spice, which is followed by a mild burn feeling that is pleasant and persists until gently fading along with the taste experience. It's Centenario 23 on a higher level. The Centenario, in my opinion, offers the best value."

— Philip-H3 (5/5)

A favorite rum of mine

"I first became interested in rum after discovering Zacapa's 23-year-old at a duty-free shop in Bogota, maybe 15 years ago. With greater depth and complexity at a more affordable price, the XO is an improvement on that expression. On the scent, there are notes of molasses, wood, and chocolate. On the taste, layers of wood, chocolate, vanilla, possibly some fresh tobacco leaves, and leather follow. Some sweetness, possibly toffee or caramel, as one would anticipate from a quality rum. This rum is velvety and smooth, perfect for sipping all night long. intricate and well-balanced. The medium-to-long finish leaves the consumer wanting more."

— Baker35 (4/5)

Elegant, exquisite, and well worth the price

"This rum is unquestionably a classic and ought to be a mainstay in the collection of every collector and enthusiast of the spirit. There are many different flavors that blend together beautifully to create something sweet and smooth that is, to put it mildly, very pleasing to the nose and palate."

— Ibrahim (5/5)

No One Can Compare to Zacapa XO.

"I've been a Zacapa 23 drinker for a long time, but until I got a bottle as a present from my daughter and son-in-law, I had never upgraded to the XO. I will shortly buy my replacement bottle because the original is now empty. I've tried a lot of rum, but this is the best I've ever had. Excellent finish with no burn. You are seriously harming yourself if you fill your glass with anything other than the XO. It can only be done neat in a beautiful crystal rocks glass. Although it is pricey, traveling first class only costs 90% extra."

— Tripp (5/5)

Incredible Yet Expensive

"It is extraordinarily complex and wonderful, and few rums can compare to it, as I have sampled enough to know. This is the Gold Standard by which all other matured rums are assessed, and for good cause. At a price of 2/3 the cost, Flor de Cana 18 year does not exhibit nearly the depth. If you don't like it, I'd be more than happy to take it off your hands. :-) On the other hand, Kaniche XO, at 1/3 the price, is about as similar to the Zacapa as it gets and I strongly urge you add it to your collection. :-) Even so, every serious rum collector needs this bottle, so if you ever have the chance to buy one, do it—you won't regret it."

— Jayceon (5/5)

My Choice for the Best on Ice

"This has a lovely presentation. Because I don't drink often, the taste is a little harsh to me, but when it's served over ice, it's incredibly smooth and delicious to sip on without giving you a hangover."

— Casey T. (5/5)

Ron Zacapa produce excellent beverages.

"Excellent work from Ron-Zacapa! When I visited Europe, I was astounded to see it at upscale bars. It is compared to a cognac by them. It has a silky, delicious flavor."

— Ronin (5/5)

I've Never Had Better Rum!

"Get a bottle of XO and enjoy it with your closest pals if you're tired of drinking exquisite aged scotch or Irish whiskey. If I discover a better rum, I'll let everyone know."

— Kashton (5/5)
