Quite strong rum which needs some air and time to breathe. Then aromatic, decent sipping rum.

Expected more from title. It is clasic Diplomatico, after taste is long, dry, medium plus alcohol. Good, but no to my taste.

Inoffensive but nothing special. Can see it as a filler in blends but not great on its own

Tasted at Laka Lono on 12/12/21. Pours amber in color. Butterscotch aroma and little else. 97 proof and shows every bit of it. Anesthetic palate. Ouch! A few drops of water does little to improve this. Distilled March 2011.

It's a decent rum but I had higher expectations. Smooth, a bit of an alcohol kick, you'll find a lot better runs in the same price range

"On the nose": sweet, vanilla and some spiciness. 👍
"Palete": caramel, and quite alcoholic kick, very robust rum, definitely ☝
"Finish": not too long, quite sweet and strong at the same time ... Soft 🔝🥃
All in all good rum, maybe some more time in a barrel and it could be even better 🤷♂️

Like a rough santa teresa, vanilla nose and taste, finish is a bit on the sweet side

This is a nice solid artisanal rum I don't taste the added sugars like Reserve. Nice full body not sure if pure cask strength but nice strength and depth, closer to a Foursquare rum. All in all a solid 8. not sure what I paid for it but a solid notch up from the $35-45 rums. nothing to hate here, but not in the top 10 collection.

A stronger and less sweet reserva exclusiva

It's clearly a Diplomatico, stronger than RE and less sweet nose with same aromas. The taste is also less sweet.
It's recognizeable, I'm not sure if it's better than RE. For sweet rum lovers definitely not.
It's still not a natural rum. But if you like RE aromas and you don't like much sweetness you can go for this one.
The nose is quite strong and dark. With caramel, raisins, ripe banana, wood and earthy cask.
The taste represents the nose, it's also very dark with raisins, burned sugar, ripe banana, earhts and tannins from the wood. If you are more experienced and you think the RE is boring you can go a step further with this rum.
If you are new to rum and you think you will find in this one a more enjoyable RE, I must disappoint you. This rum needs more attention, it's more difficult to enjoy and you need more experience.
I would rate it with 80 points.
Smell: caramel, vanilla, raisins, ripe banana, burned sugar, wood, earthy cask
