How does this rum taste?
RumX members love this Venezuelan 14-year pot still rum for its smooth, complex profile: vanilla-laced aromas lead to dark chocolate, raisin and hints of coffee, finishing long with gentle spice. Often enjoyed neat, it’s considered a standout in the Diplomatico range and impresses with balanced 47% ABV. While some note a sweet edge and high price, 127 reviews and strong buyer confidence make it a popular sipping choice.

This is the best Diplomatico there is out there. The Single Vintages is also OK but can’t really compete, but I don’t think it’s really living up to the high price, but still a must have at my Spanish shelf. Picture: My Diplomatico shelf by moment.
Though this is a 94 proof it is really well balanced and you can hardly taste the alcohol. A better version of the Exclusiva with far more nuances and variety of spices.
A rum that has been made for the uninitiated premium market, and is packaged up to suit that market. Presented very well in a nice bottle a box with cork stopper and thick glass base. On the palate is it quite one dimensional with an over arching manufactured sweetness. Chocolate, caramel, vanilla, fruits and some wood maybe? Isn't overly bad but can't be compared to a tropically aged jamaican for example. I guess it has its place in the market.
Clearly not made for me. This style just is not mine. Heavy sugar and heavy on still rough alcohol
