En meget jævn rom, som ikke har noget specielt at byde på.

A decent rum for the money, but falls short of the "bigger brother" exclusiva

This would be ok with a cigar because it has a woodiness that would suit that. However, drank neat, I found this a little harsh and with too much of an alcoholic taste over the rum taste. It's strong on molasses and more drinkable with a dash of water or a ice-cube or two. I found it disappointing, but maybe that's not because it's not very good, so much as that I was expecting more. The truth is that it feels like a decent rum, but not a special one ...we'll see how I get on with the Exclusiva when the time comes.

I bought a bottle of this when I was studying in France and on a budget. This rum, although a little young, is surprisingly good for its price. It's great to have in your collection. Especially to share with friends who are new to tasting rum. I use it both in cocktails and for tasting. Top of its class

I definitely prefer it's older brother (Reserva Exclusiva), but this one is nice. For me, for the same price, I prefer Eldorado 12 as it's smoother and less alcohol burn.

Chutný a kvalitný Venezuelský rum s dlhotrvajúcou chuťou na jazyku.
Vôňa je príjemná ovocná.
Úvod je príjemný, jemne alkoholový so sviežou chuťou.
Stred je primerane trvajúci, nie veľmi výrazný.
Záver je krátky.
Ak sa neviete rozhodnúť nad tým, čo ponúknuť návšteve, tak týmto rumom ju príjemne prekvapíte.

Me gustó mucho los sabores de este ron, tiene un sabor cálido sabor, preferible tomarlo con coca-cola y hielo. Menos dulce que el reserva exclusiva.

Diplomatico Reserva 8 40%
6
/10
out of 10
Diplomatico Reserva 8 40% (Venezuela)
Eye: Amber with copper tones
Nose: Opens with pronounced elements of grapefruit, old dry wood and molasses. It continues with weak honey, cotton and a hint of orange-zest, fat fish oil, and cheap praline that reminds me of light cooking chocolate. It is no immediate love, I can tell you that. It is so obviously colored, forced and juvenile. To me it smells like drink base.
Mouth: Could I be wrong? No, it even taste like drink base. It has that thin eau-de-vie taste that I dislike so much in a sipping rom. It is young and light and carries few own flavors. It is also short which is actually a forgiving feature in this case. The sweetness comes crawling after a while as do the vanilla. A weak buzz on the palate from the alcohol burn which is neither good or bad. Then a little caramel, honey and melted white sugar with faint hints of pear. That´s it folks! (30 minutes in some soot enters but it really doesn´t add anything.
Reaction: For some reason I had high hopes for this one. Unfortunately, there is no hope and it can´t be compared with anything I have rated so far. It doesn´t even evolve in the glass which is a first. It actually degrades in the glass which is a trademark of any bad product. As sipping rum it has to be the worst yet but that does not mean it isn´t great in a drink. I know nothing about that as I don´t usually enjoy rom based drinks.
