Luxury Guatemalan brand, Zacapa Rum, is today announcing the global roll out of
its new pack design for Zacapa XO. With a design that reimagines its classic
elegance with a fresh, modern energy, the new packaging is made to captivate
and stand out on shelf.
Marking a bold departure from
traditional luxury cues of black and gold, the new design signals an evolution
— celebrating the artistry behind Zacapa and embracing a more vibrant,
contemporary expression of craft.
Intricate lines, rich textures, and curved silhouettes hero the iconic decanter
within, while a golden interior casts a warm glow that honours the liquid it
holds. The result: a beautifully elevated gift, perfect for meaningful
moments and those who matter most.
Though the look has transformed,
the liquid remains the same: exquisite and unmistakably Zacapa XO. Made from
the first pressing of virgin sugar cane honey, finished in French oak casks that once held Cognac, and aged
for a minimum of 10 years - for a taste that is as
smooth and perfectly balanced as ever.
Aged at 2,300 meters above sea
level in the mountains of Guatemala, Zacapa is crafted in its enchanting “House
Above the Clouds”. This elevated world serves as inspiration for the new pack
with colour cues that hero the tones of the warm earth and amber glow of the
setting sun, making it truly vibrant, expressive, and deeply rooted in
Guatemala’s landscape.
Niamh Burns, Global Head of Zacapa at Diageo said:
“Zacapa XO is an incredibly special liquid that’s meticulously aged in our house above the clouds, a wonderful story of beauty and craft told through subtle design cues. This new vibrant pack hero's our liquid, our land, and perfectly captures our classic elegance with fresh and modern energy.”
The new XO pack will roll out
globally across more than 10 markets including North America, Central America,
Europe, Southeast Asia and Global Travel retail starting from July 2025 and
continue throughout the coming year. Additional core pack redesigns that bring
the new, vibrant, brand world to life will follow.
