Diplomático / Botucal Mantuano

times not sweet, quite appealing for the price. Nice change!

Drinking it neat, without ice. Fruity nose and strong woody taste. Warming without burning. Looooong taste. Great rum

7,7:The nose of this rum is very typical. It is a work around caramel, with a well-burnt and dark tendency, lot s of tropical fruit-banana....Coffee and molasses are mixed in to create a dense and concentrated liquid. Then we oscillate between melted wood and notes of wet cardboard, before the pepper comes in to give it a little kick and freshness. But that's without counting on the vanilla which adds to the sweetness and the sugary sensation. After airing the cane has a chance to stick its head out again. It now appears with its straw and even a little bitter lime zest, all very candied and melted though. The woodiness is dusty, it's a roasted nuts at the end. 7,8:The palate is quite balanced and again very typical. There is an impression of sweetness which is balanced by the dryness of the roasted nuts. Then this palate becomes decidedly round and flattering, with notes of honey, molasses, coffee and light tobacco, slightlysmoky. It remains quite intense and not so sweet. Vanilla appears in touches, linking the wood and the sweetness, again tropical fruit-banana as a leader. 7,4:The finish is soft and rather discreet, it vanishes quite quickly.

Ein leicht bräunlicher Bronzeton im Glas. In der Nase eine leichte Süße und Schärfe, etwas fruchtig. Ein leicht süßer Geschmack, etwas bitter im ersten Abgang, später dann trocken. Der Nachklang ist recht lange und angenehm.

Daje radę solo ale to w koktajlach robi robotę. Przepiękny zapach rozgrzanego drewna unoszący się w szklance po wypiciu tego trunku. Bardzo dobra pozycja tym bardziej jeżeli znajdziemy ją w promocji poniżej 100 zł

Schoko würzig orange, schwer

Sans être original, il fait le boulot. Parfait pour faire office de dessert avec les copains. Il accompagne tout les desserts au beurre ou a la creme. A garder dans sa collection pour les copains qui veulent découvrir.

I thought he would be really cute. But he is not at all. Very pleasant intense wood. Even reminds a little of guyana. No übertribene vanilla and caramel Like the 12 year old. Comes across very honest and authentic. Am positively surprised

Trochę się rozczarowałem bo aromat zapowiadał więcej. Bardzo orzechowy i od dawna nie czułem nigdzie tytoniu -mile zaskoczenie. Mimo wszystko mam wrażenie, że trunek jest nierówny. Czuję, że gdyby nie doslodzenie to byłby o wiele mniej pijany niż jest. Aromat: orzechy ziemne, karmel, torfie, rodzynki, orzechy laskowe, żurawina, dąb, tytoń, melasa, banany, figi Smak: lekko wodnisty, słodki, orzechy, rodzynki, ciepło, dąb, figi, jabłko, gruszka, mineralność, słodycz, przyprawy korzenne

I am positively surprised! Why drink the standard Botucal when this is very similar and much less sweet? The nose is not very complex, but good. My first thing that pops into my head is cherry bubble gum with chocolate caramel. In the mouth, wood dominates with fruit and caramel. The overwhelming sweetness of the Reserva Exclusiva is absent here in the 8y. Could be a little rounder in the mouth and also more intense, but for the price totally fine. Is finally a young rum

Its a good price worthy rum, but nothing more than that in my opinion. Heavy nosing of raisin, taste is a bit flat but enjoyable.

Nose is fruity and sweet, some barrelwood and spices. Palate brings more dried fruits and less sweetness than the nose hinted at. A warm burn to the aftertaste with the barrel and spices coming through. Less sweet than the Reserva Exclusiva, also a nice sipper.

Unfortunately no longer my cup of tea. It's now too weak bom ABV and too sweet for me. Corrected downwards

Ein leichter fruchtiger Süßrum. In der Nase recht angenehme Vanille und Karamell. Am Gaumen kommen etwas Holz und Gewürze dazu. Ansich keine schlechte Wahl, zumal der Preis top ist. Trotzdem bevorzuge ich seinen großen Bruder, den Reserva Exclusiva.
