No worries, I am sure we all know it is meant to say New Grove Very Old Mauritius (with the r) Island Solera Rum.

I think we may have found the answer here:

and the explanatory notes here:

So the answer is the Ron Zacapa Centenario XO has between 19 and 25 grams of sugar per litre.

At least according to the testing carried out by ALKO, the Finnish liquor monopoly.
There is also this piece, which helps to put sugar lists into context.

Simon, I think I’ve spotted one of the very few typos on your site in the title of this page, there is an ‘r’ missing!

Doesn't this have rather a high level of “dosage or added sugar?(possibly caramel, but not E150a which is very bitter)
