Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva
Most love it as a smooth, dessert-like starter rum; critics find it overly sweet, thin and one-dimensional. Consensus: a nostalgic, sugary gateway bottle, not a serious “rum geek” pour.
Those who enjoy sweet liqueurs or soft whiskies and want an easy, honeyed caramel-vanilla rum to sip neat, on ice, or mix into simple dessert-style cocktails.

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.
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.
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
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.
