Review by Hans-Peter Jank
I love this Ron Zacapa. This is the true Zacapa without the addition Solera system. No comparison to the rum marketed today by Diagio.
Review by Stefan Persson
This was the start of my adult rum journey and many bottles has passed by, but the rating has going down, down, down. It’s much too sweet for me as I have been growing into pure rum. It’s sweet, fruity and round with scents and flavors of vanilla, toffee and chocolate.
Review by Christophe Fertel
Quite spicy with a long finish
Review by Kryštof
Very similar to other Zacapas. Fruity and pretty sweet with a characteristic spiciness and a wooden accent.
Review by Dirk E.
sehr schöner Rum
Review by zabo
This bottlekill also dates back to my early days. Unfortunately, my tastes have changed a little. But I certainly don't regret drinking it back then. I can still recommend it as a good starter rum. There's hardly anyone who hasn't had it in their glass as an inexperienced rum drinker.

Er ist gut und leicht zu trinken! Mir fehlt da aber etwas.... nicht so meins
