Rum ZACAPA 23 Centenario (Guatemala).

The Zacapa story reaches its peak at The House Above the Clouds, 2300m above sea level. Here, you’ll discover our unique Sistema Solera, the secret to our rum’s balanced and complex flavour.

Here in the mountains, the cool temperature slows the ageing process, while the thinner air and lower atmospheric pressure helps intensify the infusion of flavours from the barrels. Only in this precise spot can Zacapa’s exceptionally deep aroma, full colour and rich palate emerge to reach perfection.

The "Sistema Solera" involves blending rums of various ages (from 6 to 23 years old!) in casks that once held robust American whiskey, delicate sherry and fine Pedro Ximenez wines. Every drop of rum passes through each type of cask, allowing each one to share its aromas and flavours with the maturing liquid. The result is a remarkable rum of exceptional quality.

The harvesting...

Rhum ZACAPA - the Distillery.
The story begins in the town of Zacapa, Guatemala. This rum might be famous for ageing above the clouds, but the story starts much lower – just 229m above sea level, in fact. In 1976, the town reached its centenary. To celebrate this historic event, Guatemala’s premier rum-producing company decided to create something special. By harnessing expert knowledge gained over many years, a unique premium spirit was born: Ron Zacapa Centenario.

Most rums use molasses, a by-product of the sugar making process, as their base; Zacapa, however, is different. To impart a sweeter, smoother flavour, Zacapa uses only the concentrated first press of sugar cane, known as virgin sugar cane honey. This is the very point at which our rum’s remarkable taste and profile begin to develop.
