Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Rich dark color. Wonderful nose of sweet caramel, spices, and chocolate (does not come off as a chocolate rum) I like a good Rum or Bourbon and Coke. I have some very nice Bourbons, and some recommended mid-priced rums that are fine enough for me to see where someone could enjoy drinking them neat. However, they were never something that would bring me to say, " yea, give me one of those " The Exclusiva changed that in a heartbeat. It's too smooth to break through the sweetness of a Coke so it's definitely not for a Rum and Coke, but it's wonderful on its own. By the way it's younger brother Diplomatico Mantuano is great with Coke, as well as a fine sipper in its own rights. Fortunately or unfortunately it has now brought me into the world of the quest for fine rums. Where I'm located, Exclusiva $35, Mantuano $25

Der Botucal Reserva Exclusiva ist ein sehr leckerer Rum mit einem Geschmack nach Vanille und einem sehr angenehmen Abgang. Der Rum ist ölig und süß und bietet ein sehr komplexes Geschmacksbild. Einfach lecker!

This rum is very bigged up and that made me extremely curious as to whether or not it was really that good or just overrated. But I enjoyed this rum alot, some will probably find it abit too sweet. But its has an enjoyable smoothness to it that makes it go down so easy. A really nice (popular) rum that wont let you down if you are stuck for something to buy and would feel safer getting a big brand rum, get this one.

Sweet and smooth at first with some spice on the finish. Predominant flavors is maple syrup and caramel. Possibly the sweetest rum i have had. All the expected flavors are there: vanilla, oak, caramel, but the sweetness dominats the aftertaste. Somewhat reminds me of Pillar 23.

I held off on this one for a while because some said it was different & more of a desert rum. I agree. It's very tasty, I could see it being used with desert. Lots of flavor, a little thicker. You won't be disappointed. You would probably have one of these on the rocks mixed in with your other rums throughout the night just to have something different. I'm glad I finally tried it

I do not know why is this rum so popular. It is not bad, but I think it is just bit about the average. Anyway, If someone would drink this with me I will have no problem.

Nice Rum. Always a pleasure. For the money i prefer el dorado 12y or plantation 5y. But you can't do anything wrong with diplo. In germany they call it "Butucal" 🙈

Smooth mellow sipping drink. Introduced my whisky drinkers to this on the rocks and they loved it!

I tried it out of a new bottle and thought it was delicious.
There is no heat from alcohol. It is mellow, sweet and delicious.
It reminds me of bananas flambe. It has tones of banana, caramel, vanilla, butter, cinnamon and spices.
I liked it very much and probably will make it one of my top rum for sipping.

virkelig flot rom til prisen
god eftersmag
bør næsten stå i ethvert romskab
