Diplomático / Botucal Reserva Exclusiva

It’s much too sweet for me, sugarbomb. It’s more of a liquor than rum.

great sweet rum. to be drunk solo or in cocktails. Use translate 👀

I was allowed to try it at a friend's house. So I expected it to be much worse. Tastes yet quite still after rum.

One of my favourite rums, exceptional flavour and finish, especially for its price point. Brilliant sipping rum.

Tasted as an aperitif to please and remind me of my first rum discoveries. It's too sweet and aromatic. It's not much of a rum, more like a Bailey's or similar liqueur. I understand why it's appealing, but unfortunately it doesn't capture what rum is all about.

A loverly soft velvety sweet nose with the slightest hint of banana. Mellow brown to burnt sugar complete the nose. A wonderful smooth sweet and silky mouth feel with a long finish that remains full of flavour throughout. Punches well above its price. This is a nice mellow sipping rum.

If you're used to enjoying rum at cask strength, this one just seems lackadaisical and thin. The nose is still quite interesting with banana and fruit gum, but has an artificial impact. On the palate, it's over: too sweet, too mild, too one-dimensional.

De lo mejor que he probado, dulce ? Si pero sensacional. Ofrece un final seductor y duradero. Tomar solo, sin ligar. Origen: Venezuela Materia prima: Melaza Edad: 2 a 12 años Precio: $35 Densidad alcohólica: 40% pura vida

solid average in the sweet range and ideal for beginners.

So much better than Mantuano imo, ok it's a lot sweeter but also has a lot more flavors and richness. I love the caramelised burnt sugar taste. This one isn't for those that hate added sugars.

Back to the roots! We didn't have anything in the past. If you searched the web 10 years ago for the 10 best rums, you got a list that I would give a wide berth today. First and foremost the Botucal, at that time still Diplomatico. It was one of my first rums. And I liked it at the time. Nice and sweet. So that's how rum must be. Today it's clear: no way! Please no sugar or other additives. And please with significantly more %%. But good. Let's see how the rest from the bottle tastes to me now.Nose: spicy, slightly woody, lots of caramel, vanilla, milk chocolate and some nutmeg. Gets sweeter with time, candied, still removes some orange. Goes even.Palate: oha, 41% sugar is heavy. Way too sweet. Behind it vanilla, dissolved sugar pearls, caramel. Artificial, nothing else. 10🫣

Was soll man zu so einem Klassiker noch viel schreiben. Wohl einer der bekanntesten und beliebtesten Rums. Mir schmeckt er sehr gut und für mich passt das Preis/Leistung Verhältnis sehr gut. Der Rum hat aus meiner Sicht ein sehr ausgewogenes Aroma und gehört zu meinen persönlichen Favoriten.

Wat soll man denn dazu schreiben. Liest sich eh ja keiner durch und so könnte man vermutlich den code für die atombombe in dieser Rezension verstecken. Wer diesen rum trinkt darf sich auf jeden fall auf alll das freuen, was der herrgott, oder wer auch immer, an reichhaltigem rum-portfolio parat hält und der plörre im marmorkuchen zur existenzberechtigung verhelfen. Tschuldigung hab jetzt sodbrennen

With this rum, many have discovered their love for rum. By the sweetness and complaisance the ideal entry. Meanwhile, however, it is clearly too sweet and one-dimensional for me. Nevertheless, a recommendation for all who want to collect their first steps in the pure enjoyment of spirits.

A classics to learn about the world of ron.
