I did a comparison of Zaya and Zacapa 23 this evening as I haven't sipped the Zacapa in months. Yes the Zacapa is a little bit sweet but doesn't have the overwhelming vanilla aroma of Zaya and has a much more nuanced flavor profile with a bitter aftertaste which makes it a much better rum in my opinion. I'm going to try the Zaya in a Navy Grog as maybe the bitter grapefruit will subdue the sweetness of Zaya. I finished my Pyrat XO long ago and don't plan to replace it. I've run out of storage space and TikiCentral has given me leads on other good rums to try!
