Ron Zacapa Rum

Zacapa ages its rum 2,330 metres above sea level in the "House in the Clouds", where the cool mountain air slows evaporation and lets the rum mature more slowly than anywhere at sea level. The name itself carries the mystique of Mayan legends from a Guatemala most people have never seen.

About Ron Zacapa Rum

Ron Zacapa is born in the fertile, volcanic soil on Guatemala's southern coast, where the rum is made exclusively from "virgin honey", the very first, purest syrup from the sugarcane, unlike most other rums that use molasses as a base. After distillation the rum travels for maturation to 2,330 metres above sea level in "The House in the Clouds", where Master Blender Lorena Vasquez uses the historic Sistema Solera method to blend vintages and characters. Collectors regard Zacapa 23's title of world's best rum four years running as having made the brand a collector's item in its own right, while newcomers meet a sweet, easy-drinking rum that often serves as many people's introduction to premium rum.

History & Background

Zacapa is named after the Guatemalan region, whose history stretches all the way back to Mayan civilisation, a heritage reflected today in the hand-woven straw band, "The Petate", that adorns every bottle and is made by descendants of the Maya after a royal symbol of time and space. The Sistema Solera method, in which rums from different vintages and cask types (including former bourbon, sherry and Pedro Ximénez casks) are blended in layers, requires a patience only the slower highland maturation makes possible. This combination of geography, tradition and craft has over the years made Zacapa 23 a repeat winner of the title "World's Best Rum" and secured the brand a place in rum's Hall of Fame.

History & Background

The rum was launched in 1976 and has since gained international recognition for its unusual approach to rum ageing in the Guatemalan highlands.

Production & Style

Ron Zacapa is aged 2,300 metres above sea level, where the cool mountain air slows evaporation and gives the rum time to develop depth without losing too much volume.

Signature Style

Full-Bodied, Sweet, Complex
The taste offers a full-bodied, sweet character with notes of caramel, dried fruit and spice.
