Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva is blended from traditional rums distilled in repasse stills and aged for at least 12 years.
This is a tasting rum that should be enjoyed at room temperature in a tulip glass.
Laurent's tasting note
Its colour is amber with reddish reflections.
On the nose, it is sweet. Caramel and vanilla win out hands down. A slight aroma of cinnamon is added to the top duo.
On the palate, it is really smooth. Here too, the aromas of caramel and vanilla dominate. A little pepper note completes the profile.
The finish is quite long and is divided between aromas of caramel, honey and vanilla. In general, these aromas are quite discreet and it is a feeling of sweetness that ultimately takes over.

A very good medium/high range rum, never a bad surprise. Beware for those who like charrette rums, it is sweet, very sweet on the attack, very flattering.

I have not yet drunk this beverage.

Thank you for this comment Bertrand. It is true that most Diplomatico rums are quite sweet. They are rums that correspond to a Latin American tradition, which is based on light rums for which the ageing and sweetening act as flavour enhancers. It is certain that a lover of dry rums will find it difficult to appreciate them, but they are intended to be "discovery" rums, for amateurs who are new to spirits, or who like sweet things.

A pure Venezuelan rum with smoky aromas, always a delight as a digestif

Can no longer be described. A reference in the mouth, simply well balanced with a nice roundness.

A rum that will make recalcitrant people love rum! Sweet, round, fragrant... on its own in a balloon glass or as a ti-punch with an excellent brown sugar and a small lime. A great pleasure for an interesting quality-price ratio.

Excellent... I found a taste of caramel and a smell of wood.

Olivier from Rhum Attitude
Jean, we understand your point of view and have no problem publishing it. Our point of view is this: it is indeed a rum because it is made from sugar cane (even if the latter has passed through the molasses stage like 90% of the rums marketed in the world). You only have to look at the Wikipedia definition to be convinced.
If we were to exclude slightly - or very - sweet rums from the list of rums, we would in fact be removing most of the traditional Spanish "rones". These are part of the landscape. A good number of enthusiasts who today only drink rums without any sugar started with Diplomatico, Don Papa or Zacapa, which have the merit of being a gateway to the extraordinarily rich universe of this spirit.
In conclusion, for us, Diplomatico is a rum, and one that we love for its simplicity and sweetness.

Following a gift of a tasting box, I chose this Diplomatico and for me it was a revelation of flavours and aromas!

I started with the Diplo a year ago. It is the one that triggered my interest in rum. Even though I've moved on to other things now, I like to come back to it occasionally and it's the perfect rum to introduce my friends to this drink.

This rum is a killer. I've been wanting to give it up for a while, and I don't regret it. And at a good price :)

It is very fine and greedy. Really very very very good, I recommend it to everyone
