Diplomatico rum is produced by Destileria Unidas S.A at the foothills of the Andes mountains in Venezuela. The company's origins date back to 1959, with the current owners taking over in 2002. Each bottle of Diplomatico rum features the portrait of Don Juancho Nieto Melendez, a well-known spirit collector who traveled the Caribbean in search of rums to bring back to his collection, called 'The Ambassador's Reserves'.
