Nose : sugar, fudge, cheap rum, cough syrup.
Taste : sugar, fudge, cheap rum, cough syrup. Very un-natural (who wrote about oak, vanilla or refined aromas? Where is it ??)
Finish : what ? Ah yes, some cheap candy aftertaste. And the need to drink a large glass of water after all that cloying , palate-drying sugar.

Worst than I thought. Very disappointed. It is not even a good flavoured rum liqueur.

This beverage dos not taste like an aged rum by any way. Everyone has the right to drink and enjoy it , I have no problem with that but please, please, stop to call it a rum !!!

Nez : sucre, caramel, alcool type rhum de base pour les gâteaux, sirop pour la toux (plus précisément : broncorhinol, pour les français!)
En bouche : pareil. Ecoeurant et artificiel. Qui a parlé de boisé ou de vanille, ils sont passés où ???
Final : arrière goût bizarre comme après un bonbon. Envie immédiate de boire un grand verre d'eau après tout ce sucre écœurant.

C'est bien pire que ce qu'on m'avait décrit. Une mauvaise blague, à peine un rhum arrangé, on pourrait peut être appeler ça "liqueur à base de rhum" ?
Cette boisson n'a en aucune manière le moindre point commun avec un vieux rhum. Chacun a le droit d'aimer ça, aucun problème... mais s'il vous plait arrêtez de dire que vous aimez le rhum, ça n'en est pas.

Is a very good and sweet rum. Perfect for a beginner, or if you just like sweet rum

A very sweet but smooth Rum. Perfect for newbies with a sweet tooth wanting to sip rums instead of mixing. It's one that I keep in my arsenal if I want something with additional sugar. Aging does come through, just not to the point I would like as it is overwhelmed by the sugar content

Likely the standard for a bunch of newer rum drinkers, the Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva had been on my shortlist for awhile. Very nice caramel and fruit, smooth on the palate. This is a solid "A". Seamless and fun to sip.

This has it all at, body, smoothness, complexity, at an affordable price. Best sipped neat, but delicious anyway you want it.

This is a typical Spanish rum, quite a lot of sugar et a bit too sweet. But still a good rum to start with

This is some good rum. I do like the flavor and the aroma is amazing. Would I make this my go to rum possibly. But I do highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't tried it.

Excellent rum for the money! Smooth, high viscosity, with nice legs in the glass. The aroma is reminiscent of molasses and a sweetness on the palate, with a touch of oak. Very well-balanced and excellent sipping rum!

Sweetness hits your tongue and your mouth fills with the rum aromas not a moment later. Then a quick burn and a lingering aftertaste that will make you space it out. I think that the flavours are a bit too much and makes it less appealing on each passing drink. If you let it sit in your fridge the cold milds it down just right, but I like my sippers to be room temp.

Cheap stuff, but Mantuano is cheaper and a bit easier on the palate (not better but not worse either).
