Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Sweet to start slight spice full flavour warm kick to end

A nice, easy to sip rum that does not offend but is too sweet to be marked great. Quite dark in colour, very likely thanks to added caramel as some speculate. It has a certain spiciness to it, which lasts for a while, then overtaken with a sweet sensation that does not go. This sweet aftertaste is something I do not like, but I can understand why many love it. Will not buy again.

I expected better seeing the overall rating. In my opinion the sweetness is overwhelming. It lacks personality. Lenght is pretty short. Really not much to say about it.

Ce rhum ne vous laissera pas indifférent dès la toute première gorgée ! Le maître qui l’a conçu, l’a fait en pensant certainement l’offrir à quelqu’un qu’il aime d’un franc amour !
Un rhum qui est unique, tendre tout en ayant un caractère qui inspire du respect. Il représente bien le savoir faire vénézuélien en la matière. La petite bouteille verte se distingue très aisément sur les rayons. Le rapport qualité / prix est très bon ! Plutôt doux, à la limite sucré, le diplomatico présente en bouche des notes de fruits mûrs enrobés de caramel. Des senteurs d’arômes tropicaux viennent complimenter le tout, pour le plus grand bonheur de l’amateur ! Attention, ce rhum se boit tout seul 😁 vous en prendrez encore et encore !
J’ai bien hâte de me procurer le Diplomatico Ambassador sélection. Il est certes dispendieux, mais devrait sans aucun doute être source de jouissance ! Cheers !

I’m actually surprised that the rating on this is only 8.0. I’d definitely hold this to one of my favorites. This Diplomatico is something you should always have at home.

Nuanced, spicy taste with sweetness and clear barrel character, hints of orange, raisins, nuts, vanilla fudge and cinnamon.

Bottle: 700ml
Alcohol: 40%

Been given a few of these by friends who know I like Rum, too sweet for me and my personal tastes

It's a nice drink and I'm looking forward to moving up the Diplomatico ladder at Some point

Sells for about £30- £35 in the uk 2021
I own a bottle and only rate what I have bought

Very Sweet, taste like coca cola, little afterburn. If you like really sweet rum, add 2 points.

It has everything that is needed! Nice colour, gooooood smell, and sweet soft flavour. I like it very much.

Only thing it lacks is something new and interesting

Easily drinkable, sweet in the beginning, strong taste after.

I HAD to try a bottle of this, because of the high praise it receives all over the internet. This rum is in a slightly higher price bracket to where I normally shop, so expectations were sky-high. I just find it sickeningly sweet, on the nose, during sipping and long after finishing a glass. Back to the cheap mixers for me......
