Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva Rum
An exquisite sipping rum that is made almost entirely from sugar cane honey. This fine rum from Venezuela is blended from 80% pot still rum and 20% light rums aged for up to 12 years. The end result is a truly exceptional rum showing characteristic fruity and sweet flavours to a level of concentration that is even higher than its family members.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Big and complex, very characterful. Fruit cake, rum’n’raisin ice cream, cocoa, and some cake spices: dried ginger, cinnamon and clove. Baked bananas with fudge sauce. Highland Cream toffee bars.
Palate: Very chocolatey initially, like a chocolate sauce on dessert. Rich and full, bursting with the sweet toffee, fudge and tropical fruit flavours from the nose. The texture is very generous, rounded by the oak. Real mouth-watering depth of flavour here.
Finish: Flakes of Terry’s Dark Chocolate Orange sprinkled over melted vanilla ice cream.
