Zacapa XO is a premium rum that achieves a perfect balance of complexity and elegance through a unique blend of reserve rums aged between 10 and 25 years in the renowned “Sistema Solera.” This exclusive aging process sees Zacapa’s rums mature in a sequence of barrels that have previously held robust American whiskeys, delicate Sherries, fine Pedro Ximénez wines, and are finished in French oak casks that once aged Cognac. The result is a rich, multi-layered rum with depth and refinement, perfect for sipping.
At 40% alcohol by volume (ABV), Zacapa XO is a smooth and sophisticated rum with aromas of mature, toasted oak, burnt caramel, dry-roasted nuts, marzipan, and orange peel, finishing with a subtle, deep fruity note. On the palate, it offers a harmonious blend of sweetness, fruit, spice, and spirit, with flavors of dark cherry, chocolate, date, prune, and sweet oak spices, including clove, vanilla, and cinnamon. The finish is smooth, leaving lighter notes of dried mango, raspberry, and ginger that linger pleasantly.
