New to rum so thought I’d try this. It was little bit smoother than the no2 but didn’t smell as nice . Taste is a bit much for me so didn’t enjoy it but that’s probably due to my inexperience with rum and only really liking sweeter rums at the moment. Maybe later I may be able to appreciate what the others taste that I currently can’t .

It is good, but "There's not enough there there" to jump ahead of many others I have had at this price. Beautiful burnt caramel color with a very alcohol forward nose that frankly takes quite a while to dissipate. Labeled at 47%, I would guess it over 54% at first taste. It lingered and somewhat negated a lot of the note character on the tongue for at least 20 or 30 seconds. It gives way to a woody, subdued stone fruit that finished in a nice balance, but never really wows enough to offset the long powerful alcohol bite to start for me. Good? Yes. $80 GOOD? Not sure. After sitting on the table for 20 minutes the remainder of the glass becomes more balanced from beginning to end and I would say a 7.4 is a decent average rating. But as the price point neighbors some of the Foursquares I've been drinking lately, I long for a similar experience of a heavy nosed bottle with a payoff of more substantial notes past the burn. More There There.

A bit sharp at the beginning, but aftertaste is excellent!

If you like the typical taste of diplomático, this is a good way to try something a little different but maintaining what you already know and like. A good alternative

Light caramel color and taste. Burn leaves replaced by an oak char taste. Worth adding to your collection.

Quite bitter, very reminiscent of Scotch. Probably the least favorite of the bunch, but still an interesting experience for Diplomatico fans.

Inte sä söt som Diplomatico brukar vara ... lite sträv

Ok, no added sugar FINALLY from Diplomatico. Jorge and Juan have been away from the nigth shift where they usually dosage all rums, so this one got away. Simple, a bit oddly chemical note in the distillate. vanilla, oak.

Not very strong aroma, first taste is good with typical Diplomatico tones, no extra burning (you would not expect 47%) aftertaste is shorter and some strange taste (not very nice one) stays in mouth. After first taste I wanted to give only 6 points, but hen I left the rest or rum in glass next 15 minutes and it improve to 6,5-7 point.

Good aroma but first taste is potent. Burnt sugar and caremelised fruit

N- The numerous types of stills in rum production are just amazing and confusing, this one originated from Canada. Baked apple pie with cinnamon, drizzled some maple syrup, add a bit of wood chip smokes and crushed tobacco. Pleasantly earthy but reserved and shy even at 47%, having spent 6 years in a ex-bourbon cask, the aroma are underwhelming. (84/18)

P- Fine body, medium texture. Mellow, soft with dried fruits on charred nuance, pickled brine, nutmeg and mineral underlay, feel retrained somehow. (85/19)

F- Medium-long, fragrantly coated with dusty wood, creamy caramelized honey on the return. Warming. (85/19)

B/B- 85/19

Weighted Rate- 75pt
