“Sweet, balanced, but pricey and rich.”

Ron Zacapa Royal, distilled by Industrias Licoreras de Guatemala, is a high-end rum aged for nearly 30 years. Crafted from sugar cane honey with a 45% ABV, it presents a complex aroma of vanilla, dried fruit, and dark chocolate. User reviews highlight its sweet caramel and dark chocolate taste with spicy undertones. While praised for its rich flavor profile, some users find it too sweet and overpriced. Ideal for beginner rum enthusiasts, this rum combines depth and sweetness with a smooth finish. Its sophisticated aging process imparts layers of flavor, though some feel it doesn’t justify the premium price tag compared to other Zacapa offerings.

“Retasting this one changed the score, how the palate changes over time 😊 This is probably the best rum in the Zacapa range. Maybe a bit too expensive for a rum that isn't a limited version.”
