Whisk(e)y(?) Wednesday - 2021-03-03

Back at it for Whisk(e)y Wednesday? Not quite - tonight I'm having Ron Zacapa Centenarlo Sistema 23 Solera. A blend of rums between 6 and 23 years old.


On the nose, I get orange peel, ripe bananas, toffee, cinnamon, vanilla and some honey. The taste I get honey, sweetness, some apple, a touch of licorice, and some cinnamon spice. The finish is sugary, candy, simple syrup and some spice on the backend. 

This is pretty good overall. I used to drink random rum mixed drinks and such, so I thought I would try a mid-level rum to see what I thought. This one is in the $40s, so not too expensive, but we're not talking rum for mixed drinks. I could see having this when I wanted a break from scotch/whiskey/bourbon. Rated 3.0 / 5.0
