„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.“

„This is definitely overpriced in my opinion. If I want a Zacapa I will always choose the XO.“

„In the nose a little stronger than the Zacapa 23, but is probably due to the 5% more. Otherwise a little woodier, otherwise hardly a noticeable difference. In the taste directly a big load of sherry. In addition, some honey sweetness, a spicy note and a pleasant mouthfeel, probably because of the sugar, which does not really bother me here. There is a clear difference in the taste, unlike the nose. It's a great rum, but not worth the 250€. I would rather compare it with products around the 100€.“

„I was first afraid the Royal might be heavily sweetened as is typical of zacapa, but the sweetness blends in perfectly and supports flavors of vanilla, raisins, prune, apricot, some oak and very subtle allspice.“

„Solera di tendenza ma non per questo poco raffinato o piacevole, interessanti le note dolci e leggermente speziate mantenendo una certa profondità“

„This used to be one of my best rums back in the day, but despite the maturity and the at the time “high” 45% it is today way to weak and sweet for me.“

„Fazit gleich vorweg: ich bin enttäuscht! Preis und Leistung stehen für mich nicht im Verhältnis. Die bis zu 5 Jahre mehr Lagerzeit machen sich geschmacklich leider mit Nichten positiv bemerkbar. Vor allem an der Nase zurückhaltend. Wenigstens im Geschmack ein schönes Wechselspiel aus kräftigem und würzigen Auftritt, hin zu Frucht, Kaffee und Honig.“
