Diplomatico Ambassador Selection

Jeg havde forventet mig meget mere af denne rom, men omvendt, så er jeg heller ikke en stor fan af Reserva Exclusiva. Hverken smags- eller duftmæssigt kan jeg komme højere op end 7, hvilket er skuffende.

A rum collection isn't complete without the Ambassador! Hence I bought a bottle while on Special. Top presentation with heavy metal cork stopper. So smooth, very Sweet. If you like Sweet rums this is for you! I think its aged for 12 years in ex Bourbon barrels, then blended and aged for a further 2 years in x-Pedro Ximenez (sweet Sherry) casks

Too expensive to buy (really any rum at this price is overpriced) but lovely to be gifted. Very swanky packaging, faux leather box, heavy metal cork and all that. The contents are very good too. Sugar added? Yes, most likely. There is a hint a of SLS (sticky lip syndrome) which is a shame. It's not a sweet as the Reserva Exclusiva though and not as cloying. Ripe fruit aroma, plums and figs, and a pleasant smokiness. Unfortunately a hint of 'sweet shop' too. Very smooth to drink at 47%. The rum truly shines in it's heavy oaky finish. Great use of those Pedro Ximenez casks. Oak can easily be too bitter, this has a powerful but pleasant presence.

A steep price will put off many, and I only tried a small sample bottle which was still expensive enough. It's damn good for sure. If you can afford it, it's certainly a beautiful drink. But it's not something I could feel good about paying for to drink regularly!

This one is very presentable. The taste is a bit fermented, "fruity" is not far fetched. The rum alone is not worth the 200, but combined with the present-ability of the bottle and the velvet lined box it comes in, I think it is. Definitely top shelf, definitely placed in front of almost any other product on that shelf.

Men må man ikke forvente lidt mere af en Rom til over 1.500.

Husker ikke nærmere bedømmelse da det er et godt stykke tid siden jeg smagte den og blot gav en karakter.

47° geeft scherpte maar is verfijnd. Door de prijs toch niet mijn favoriet.

Vor zwei Jahren habe ich diese Flasche von meiner Frau zum Geburtstag bekommen. Gestern war es soweit. Sie wurde geöffnet.
Dieser Rum ist eine einzige Offenbarung für mich.

So lecker und würzig und abgestimmt. Genial!!

Zatim to nejlepší co jsem měl možnost pít. Na to kolik má procent je velmi jemný a krásně voní, na jazyku velkou spoustu jemných chutí a po polknuti nezvykle dlouhý ocas.
