Description


Connoisseurs wanted!


Ron Zacapa Gran Reserva from Guatemala is a rum of impeccable quality and complexity, and is regarded as one of the finest in the world. It is the ultimate testament of bringing craftsmanship back into luxury...it’s the specific combination of Guatemala’s soil, climate, and altitude, together with the Master Blender’s unusual degree of control over production and aging, that enable it to create the world’s best-tasting rum!


A wonderfully complex and satisfying balance of sweetness, fruit, spice and spirit, all tempered by the extra aging stage in ex-cognac French oak barrels; long, smooth, and sweet with a weight of dark cherry chocolate and flavors of intense dried fruits like sultana, date, and prune; sweet oak spices of clove, vanilla, and cinnamon, and lighter notes of dried mango and raspberry, with a subtle hint of ginger to finish. A true delight and the ultimate expression of the Master Blender’s art. Best if you drink it neat.
