Product details
Zacapa La Doma is the first release of an exclusive but especially exceptional Guatemalan dark rum that comes from the limited edition Heavenly Cask Collection. This collection contains 4 rums that have gone through the unique Solera aging process with the help of different special casks. Zacapa La Doma matured in American ex-whiskey casks, known as Taming Cask, which gave it an extremely pleasant aroma full of refreshing notes of chocolate, wood and vanilla. It is made from a mixture of several rums that have matured for 6 to 23 years using the Solera system, which has given them a delicious fruitiness.
Tasting notes
Slightly sweet, honey, sugar cane, bananas. Long, slightly spicy, rich, fruit, vanilla.
THE STORY OF ZACAPA
Zacapa rum was created in 1976 to commemorate the 100th anniversary celebration of the foundation of the city of Zacapa. Zacapa is a town in Guatemala located approximately 112km from Guatemala City. The name Zacapa derives from Nahuatl (Aztec) language, and it means “on the river of grass. The magic of aging is inspired by the Sistema Solera (Solera System), where our rum’s journey includes a multitude of cask types and styles carefully selected by Lorena Vásquez, to capture specific flavors and textures, as well as the perfect color. When it comes to casks, each one has a story to tell in the final liquid, meaning there’s no finer spirit to go on this journey with. Some are made from American White Oak and were previously used to store American Whiskey, and others are made from European oak that have previously been used to age Cognac, Sherry or Pedro Ximénez Wines. They each have different degrees of toasting, depending on the final characteristics that are being sought for the different rums. This stage of the production of rums allows Lorena to vary the complexity of the profile that she is seeking in the rum.
