If you just want a rum and coke, go for this Diplomaitco Reserva. Only reason why I tried this rum is because my local store didn't have Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva. Not good for sipping and I only drink it when there's nothing else on my shelf. Still a big fan of Diplomatico, but I will never buy this rum again it I can help it. With that said this is still better than other popular rums on out there.

sec, trop de sensation d'alcool en bouche et finalement on ne retient pas grand chose de la dégustation... il y a tellement mieux chez Diplomatico!!!

If this Diplomatico is a good representation of Venezuelan rum then I offer my house to this country to settle their next embassy ;-)
In Cuba we are always told we make the best rum in the world, right?... Wrong!
Diplomatico reserva is a nice yet sweet rum that can challenge may of the cuban brands. I have rated this one 7 as I find it a bit harsh in the afterburn. I also find the smell a bit ethanolish... Overall I like this one as a sipper and for about ~38CAD in the Ontario, Canada marketplace is a much superior deal to others like the Matusalem solera 15.

This younger brother of the Reserva Exclusiva is by no means an inferiour rum. It is somewhat less sweet, more dry but still very nice to sip!

This one has a lot going on from the barrel aging but one would wish it was in that barrel just a little longer. This is Much better than the Anejo version. It has all the great flavors you would expect mainly I got chocolate, butterscotch, some vanilla. I finished this one rather quickly so overall a great product but for a little more a 12 year would totally eliminate the alcohol presence which was hidden greatly below the flavor but detectable. This one has a small amount of added sugar per testing but not as massive as Exclusiva.

This is a nice rum for the price, but there are others much easier to drink, like RZ23, Don Papa, and of course the Diplo Reserva Exclusiva.

suprisingly sharp alcohol when drinking straight, for "up to 8y" old its bit strange, on the otherside taste is ok, what i loved with this rum was addition of coke. Something i would do again and again and again. Also price gave +1 to the final score.

Rhum sympa mais pas comparable au "Reserva Exclusiva". Il faut dire qu'il y a une belle différence de prix et il est plus sec. Son parfum est agréable, et bien que moins doux que son grand frère, il n’agresse pas la gorge non plus. Un rhum que je conseillerais.
