Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Sweetness 8/10
Overall 9/10

Fantastic! Could have been priced the dpuble. Great rum for every occasion. Could drink this all day:-)

Rich and creamy, strong caramel and toffee flavours, without being overwhelmed with a strong taste of alcohol or oak. Very sweet though, so may not be for everyone.

Brilliant sipping rum. A must try for everyone!

Really good rum for the price. It is sweet without getting too sweet.
Very balanced in the taste.

Perfect weekday rum nightcap....two ice cubes...on the sweet side, but packs a powerful little punch...

Well that's a terrific Rum ! A great choice to sip "straight from the bottle" ;)
On it's own it would deserve may be an 8/10, but it's very fair price makes it win the extra point to 9/10.
Sweet, subtile, balanced, a great choice for an everyday Rum !

Very smooth and tasty rum... great for sipping or in a cocktail... try a Presidente with this... beautiful...

The nose of this rum is of luxurious burnt sugar or bitter caramel. The first taste that hits your tongue is a rich molasses base with vanilla overtones. However, for me, there's a separation between the bitterness of the initial sensation and the sweetness (perhaps too sweet) finish. I enjoy my run at room temperature and neat and perhaps this run would benefit from something extra. Although it's a pleasant sipping rum, I find a couple of measures is the limit. I will however, try some of the other Diplomatico rums as they clearly know what they are doing.

Decided to dive into the world of rum this summer and this was my first buy after extensive research (and what was available locally). Can't imagine a much better choice. Had it on ice in a white wine glass. Smooth, cane sugar taste with no burn in the mouth or throat. Like chewing on a sugar cane. Hits you in the belly but in a warm, lovely way. Pumped to try, then contrast with other brands and styles!

This rum is soft en gentle for you, right from the first start and stays that way till the end.
The smell is soft en sweet with all kinds of flavours opening up, preparing your mouth for whats to come. Then you take a sip of this lovely potion and you get exactly what you want after smelling it; lots of flavour in the most subtle way possible. It might even smother you with that soft and warm feeling.

Seems harmeless at first, but this baby will make you want it.

Lovely rum, excellent made stuff.

As a great rum fan, this happens to be my personal favourite. Enjoy on the rocks or straight up.
