Production:  Created in 1976 to celebrate the centenary of the foundation of the town of Zacapa in eastern Guatemala. Its unique taste is due to use of the virgin sugar cane honey as the base, sourced from their plantation on the volcanic plains of Retalhulen, 350 meters above sea level in south western Guatemala and which it makes all the difference to the Zacapa’s remarkable taste and profile given them a sweeter, smoother flavor.  Using a unique solera system, rums from 6 to 23 years old are blended in casks that once held robust American whiskey, sherry and fine Pedro Ximenez and aged in a stunning location in the highlands of Quetzaltenango, 2300 meters above sea level, where it will develop its complex flavors and character. As a result this Zacapa centenary rum presents sweet aromas of caramel,  honeyed, butterscotch, spiced oak and raisined fruit  scented nose. Complex and full bodied with a sweet honeyed flavor and a great depth of raisined fruit, savoury oak, nutmeg, spicy and cinnamon.   www.zacaparum.com
