“Sweet, woody, and exclusive Venezuelan rum.”

Diplomático / Botucal No. 2 Single Barbet Column Rum is a limited edition Venezuelan rum crafted at Destilerías Unidas S. A. Distilled from molasses using a column still, this variant carries a potent 47% ABV. Tasting notes highlight a sweet profile dominated by caramel, oak, and vanilla, with an intriguing woody aroma. While appreciated for its smooth blend of sweet and woody flavors, some find the taste profile overly mellow or synthetic. This rum is ideal for those seeking a sweet, easily drinkable rum, though its unique finish may not suit all palates. Only 5000 bottles have been released, adding to its exclusive appeal.

“In my understanding this should showcase the ingredients in the Botucal Blend, but then why show of what is in part the reason you need to blend it so heavily. This really feels like a filler, think of grain whisky.”

“Ok no.2 here we go. Nose is a bit weird mostly wood/oak. Little bit of fruit, sort of dried figs and rest is weird synthetic smell kind of acidic. Taste again completely different than smell. Typical venezuelan rum with mostly vanilla, caramel (sweet) notes which are underlined by oak or barrel taste. Finish is medium to long one which is nice. Mostly woody harrelson in the finish. :P Same rating as no.1 for me. Retasting and pulling 1 point 👇”
