The Zaka Trinidad is a 7-year-old rum crafted in the vibrant region of Trinidad and Tobago by the Zaka Distillery. Distilled from rich molasses and bottled at 42% ABV, this rum offers a complex and unique tasting experience. It unveils an intricate aroma featuring notes of banana, citrus, honey, woody vanilla, and a hint of spice. The flavor profile is equally sophisticated, with layers of honey, woody undertones, citrus, vanilla, and sweet nuances. These are followed by a vanilla sweetness and slightly more pungent spices, including pepper, that linger on the tongue.
The rum boasts a rich, well-rounded mouthfeel, with spices occupying the middle of the mouth and agitating on the tongue. The aroma is reminiscent of a well-dried and well-roasted oak barrel, with wisps of vanilla and sweet, gourmet notes of caramel and spiced molasses. Despite its complexity and depth of flavor, the rum has received mixed reviews, with some finding it lacking in exceptional qualities. Nonetheless, the unique combination of fruity, caramel, and woody flavors, along with the well-rounded mouthfeel and long finish, make this rum worth exploring for any rum enthusiast.
It is worth noting that aeration does not reveal much more about this rum, as the cask keeps its secrets well lodged within its coal-black surface. Overall, the Zaka Trinidad is a unique and interesting rum that offers a complex and satisfying tasting experience.
