Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

This was the first sipping rum I ever had. I was given it as a birthday present from a teetotaller friend who knew I was a whisky hound and mistakenly thought this was whisky. I calmed him down by informing him that I was found of rum and coke and immediately tried it as such. on my first sip I could the the coke was hiding something so after finishing the R&C I poured a nip and discovered just how much I was missing out on in the rum world. best enjoyed with a nice Connecticut leaf wrapped cigar

Leve, adocicado, bem aromático, em rum bem diferenciado

All the reviews I read on this one had me excited a sweet sipping rum, vanilla notes etc what’s not to like. Unfortunately it wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. With some ginger ale and lime it was quite delicious but quite strong alcohol taste stopped it from being a good supper for me.

Great to finish a meal or a sunny day! Would recommend this one

I don't like sweet things in general, but I really like this rum. Sweet, but not disturbingly so. Maybe I wouldn't prefer to drink it every day, but some days it just feels right. It would not be preferable to drink more than two glasses in a row, but 1-2 are very enjoyable. A great combination of flavors. There is more alcohol in the smell than in the taste. Many say that it is not rum, but it tastes good. My favorite so far in the price range of 30-40.

Expected not to like this at all. Surprisingly not that sweet, and much less sweet than it's big brother.
Touch of liquorice and some burnt sugar but otherwise well integrated flavours with a surprising bit of burn.
Personally, for the money, I'd rather drink Black Tot or R L Seale, but actually I'd quite happily drink this too.

Smooth, sweet and always a nice experience. You can't go wrong with this one. Deserved hype.

This is a good rum. Sweet, and smooth. Nice flavors, a fair amount of wood, lightly smoky, hints to chocolate, toffee, carmel, vanilla. Almost no burn. I really like this one, a good and easy sipper, though perhaps a bit too sweet for me. I'd like to try mixing this with something a lot less sweet to maybe find a really nice balance. I do recommend trying it.

One of my favorite everyday rum.
I could drink it for breakfast.

This one is readily available, and tasty, if not very complex
