Ron Zacapa Edición Negra

Great Smokey flavor

Leicht alkohollastig. Keine Nennenswerte Frucht, keine Gewürze. Sehr eindimensional

Der Name ist schon an der Nase Programm. Dunkle Schokolade und Kaffee überwiegen neben Toffee und Karamell. Am Gaumen kommt dann noch eine nussige und getreidige Komponente dazu. Im Abgang macht sich dann noch mehr der Einfluß des Whiskyfasses bemerkbar, da leichte Rauchnoten auftauchen.

je ne suis pas fan des rhums vieillis en fût de whisky.

a bit alcoholic and a bit spicy finale. harder than the Zacapa 23 solera

En rom med røgsmagen 🤔🤔den var sku anderledes end normal Zacapa. Best i Cola efter mine smagsløg, men der var den også fin

Eher rauchig, kräftig, aber angenehm mit langem körpereichem Finisch

Arômes de torréfaction bien présents. On sent les 43°😉

"Sans gros plus mais intéressant En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Caramélisé, Chêne En bouche : Fruits secs, Caramélisé, Café La finale plutot orientee vers : Chêne" On reste sur un RON sucré malgre tout, pas mon style.

Smokey, dry, rye whiskey like, aged in double toasted barrels

Very similar to the normal Zacapa on the nose (caramel, fruit), except that smoky and toasty flavors are more represented. In the mouth, the smoke and tobacco then comes through very strongly, which is why drinking becomes a spicy experience. Must like, I do not find it all too good. Price much too expensive! Positive to mention are in any case the chocolate and roasted flavors, which are very pleasant in combination with caramel.

Ich mag den rauchigen Geschmack, dadurch wirkt er für mich nicht zu süß

Note: This review was on first opening of bottle. I will revisit this in a month once the rum has had a chance to breath. On The Rocks: On the nose slight bitterness with some mild floral notes. Taste is mildly bitter with charred oak and spices. Finish is medium with the charred and bitterness trailing off. Starting to develop some complexity but not quite there yet. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose slight spices and fruit. Taste is a little sweeter with more pronounced charred oak in the background. The finish fades fast but does not leave any bitterness lingering.

An all-purpose rum, rather sweet with notes of caramel and smoked wood. This special edition bears a striking resemblance to the original, and the quality-price ratio is correspondingly lower. For me, it would have deserved a few degrees more to be better.

Compliments of RumX. As a fan of Zacapa rums I like it. The rum has a strong smell and also taste. Honestly I did not note any dark chocolate, but I did feel thr spice as well as the woody flavour from oak. I would recommend it as a next step for rum beginners.
