“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.”

“Un rhum un peu passe partout, plutôt doux avec des notes de caramel et de bois fumée. Cette édition spéciale ressemble beaucoup à l'original, le rapport qualité prix s'en ressent (à la baisse). Pour moi il aurait mérité quelques degrés en plus pour être meilleur.”

“Aromatically good and not too sweet but the smoky just doesn't fit in here.... And the alcohol is strangely not well integrated.”
