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 travelers 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: Ron Zacapa Centenario. Zacapa X.O. Containing a blend of rums from 6 to 25 years old, with an extra aging stage in French oak barrels that previously held cognac. A very open nose with a wealth of aromas that seem to evolve each time you nose the glass; a great balance of mature toasted oak, burnt caramel, dry-roasted nuts, marzipan and orange peel; a delicate floral note of honeysuckle in the background.
A wonderfully complex and satisfying balance of sweetness, fruit, spice and spirit, all tempered by the extra aging stage in ex-cognac French oak barrels; long, smooth and sweet with a weight of dark cherry chocolate and flavors of intense dried fruits like sultana, date and prune; sweet oak spices of clove, vanilla and cinnamon, and lighter notes of dried mango and raspberry, with a subtle hint of ginger to finish. A connoisseur’s delight and the ultimate expression of the Master Blender’s art.
