Zacapa Reserva Limitada 2015

Its been a while I have this bottle. I don’t drink rum often, but wanted to give it another sip to compare. Rum, like cachaça and tequila are one-sided taste. You will get too much of whats made off of. Alrhough this bottle claims to blend rums aged anywhere from 6 to 24 years, the flavor is very concentraded in molasses. On the nose, there’s some bourbon hints, maybe pine tree and also grass. Very concentrated smell of sugar cane and molasses with vanilla. The palate also concentrates in molasses, honey and sugar cane with hints of wood chips, pine, which is coming from the Bourbon cask aging. It says there’s a lot of sherry aging as well, but I didn’t get much of the nuts or fruits that would come from it. Molasses and caramel overpowers a bit.
