Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva rum is distilled from molasses in copper pot stills and then aged in small oak casks for on average 12 years before being bottled.
Produced in Venezuela, which has a rich rum history dating to 1896, the Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva distillery is located on the northern slopes of the Andes mountains.

Look its nice and sweet and very tasty but it's been loaded with extra sugar. I love rum liqueur and that's what this is but with 40 abv
This was my rum which got me into the rums, great baseline, but once you try more rums, this became a bit too sweet for me.
Smells like orange-peel and chocolate, and taste-notes of caramel and vanilla.
Drinkable for most
Sweet. Hard sniff reminds me of Exotic Vodka from the 90/00. Nice, but might not be worth the price.
Was recommended this and its a great sub for those whiskey crossover to make rum old fashiond
Good liqueur (easy to sip on ice), Bad rum. How snobbish ? No, not really.... Frankly, this is just like Kahlua mees Cointreau or other triple sec, not a proper rhum, there are no molasses nor sugarcane in this, just cheap white alcohol - first price vodka probably, or that kind of eau-de-vie that should cost you half the price of what they sell at least (for those who claim this is cheap !!!) - with sugar (loads, I think Drecon stated 41 grams per liter) and coffee/caramel flavours added after distillation.
Wonderful sipping experience. Smooth and silky. I would buy again.
Interesting rum but quite sweet (because of the additives?). For people starting to enjoy rum this is an easy one to drink pure however better in cocktails once you have tried better quality rum. Sweet nose and mild aromas. Just good, not amazing.
This is one is very good all around, finish aroma taste. Best drunk on its own. A must to drink

A bit too sweet for me but better than connoisseur's give it credit for. Simple, straightforward nose of sweet toblerone, toffee, vanilla, butterscotch and caramel; a little nuttiness, and a hint of light fruit.
Palate. A little oak, muscovado sugar and caramel, vanilla, light fruits, cinnamon, nothing particularly new or adventurous. Overall, even on the finish, and then judged overall, it had little beyond a pleasant, warm sort of sweet unaggressive nature only marginally redeemed by a light tart fruity note here or there, and the edge imparted by a little oak. Beyond that, it was way too sweet for my taste.
