“This Diplomatico is not nearly as sweet as the DRE so it’s an easy choice to choose it before the DRE. The spices are soft and appears during the rather short finish.”

“Nearly no nose to describe but what is there is delicate and subtle. The taste is complex, sharp and spicy, with an equally spicy hot finish. Pleasant but might be an acquired taste for some.”
