ZACAPA - Carafe Centenario XO Solera Gran Gran Reserva Especial - 40% Zacapa is a rum factory in Guatemala that is particularly famous today almost mythical. The specificity of this house is that they use concentrated cane juice and natural yeasts extracted from pineapple. Once fermented, the juices are distilled in a single-column copper still and then the eaux-de-vie are transported to be aged in the cellars located at more than 2300m of altitude. The rum Zacapa Carafe Centenario XO Solera Gran Gran Reserva Especial is an original selection of eaux-de-vie from Zacapa. It is a blend of Zacapa rums aged in American bourbon, European wine and Spanish Sherry barrels. This rum is aged according to an ancestral method imported from Spain. In a solera system, the barrels are organized into levels, from the youngest to the oldest. Thus, the young rums are sung at the highest level and then as the years, the part of rums evaporated in the lower floors (share of angels) is completed by the rums of the upper floors. Thus rum goes down the barrel stages as it gets older and the level closest to the ground, called solera, is a mix of rum of different ages. This is a fine selection of the finest eaux-de-vie from this famous "solera" level.
