I've been waiting to taste this rum for a long time and I was a little disapointed with the first taste. The alcohool is pretty strong so it's a little hard to sip by itself. I also tried it with ice and I thought it was better.

Bueno para compartir con amigos, agradables aroma y dorado intenso!!!
Sin hielo va bien.
Nice to start, not really bad but not really good. The sweety taste helps if you don't like dry and strong rum.

Heavy on the nose with caramel and molasses and a light fruitiness behind it. The first sip has a thin mouth feel, but a lot of flavor. It leads with a light sweetness followed by rum with a medium finish that leaves behind the taste of a honey-crisp apple with a little heat. Not as sweet as the Exclusiva, but a tasty flavor. A decent sipper, but at the price point would feature well in a premium cocktail.

Scheint die Ablösung des Anejo und Reserva zu sein, eigentlich schade.
In Glas schönes helles Bernstein.
In der Nase zeigen sich zarte Nuancen von Vanille, Karamell und etwas Holz.
Im Gaumen nicht sehr aufregend, etwas Karamellbonbon mit Vanillesauce, dafür viel weniger süss als der Reserva oder Reserva Exclusiva.
Im Abgang leider zu schnell weg.
Sicherlich ein super Ron zum mixen, kann aber auch pur getrunken werden. Ein Ron für den anspruchslosen Rumtrinker.
Seems to be the replacement of the Anejo and Reserva, actually a pity.
In glass beautiful bright amber.
The nose shows delicate nuances of vanilla, caramel and some wood.
Not very exciting on the palate, some caramel candy with vanilla sauce, but much less sweet than the Reserva or Reserva Exclusiva.
In the finish, unfortunately away quickly.
Certainly a great Ron to mix, but can also be drunk straight. A Ron for the undemanding Rum drinker.

Rum nemá vůni ani chuť, která by zaujala. Rozhodně doporučuji bratra v podobě Reserva Exclusiva.
Best I've had for a great price ff

I had the opportunity to taste Diplomatico Mantuano at a celebration recently. If you haven't tried it yet and would like to compare it with e.g. Diplomatico Reserva Exlusiva (RE), here are a few observations:
1) Colour - I would say it's the same for both, although it seems to me that the Mantuano is a little darker.
2) Smell - Mantuano is more smelling of alcohol (some kind of spirits), which is probably due to a little less ripeness. The rest of the smell is similar to RE. In my opinion, the aroma is dominated by dried fruits (plums).
3) Taste - this is probably the most important thing for everyone. After the first sip, it first occurred to me that it was so "thinned/diluted". RE is more dense after drinking. Mantuano is so called "watery". It's also a little sharper than RE, but over time it calms down and by the end the taste is not so different compared to RE. Mantuano is also a little less sweet.
To sum it up, Mantuano seems to me like 2nd quality of RE. Is it worth paying extra money for RE? The price difference is approx. 300 CZK (12 EUR). Personally, I prefer to pay the extra money.
Overall rating: 6,5 from 10
