Basic everyday drinking. Smooth and relatively straightforward

This is a great rum, for the price (you can get it at CostCo for song). Quite smooth and flavorful, but perhaps a bit sweet for purists.

Maybe not the best rum in the world, but definitely best price performance rum

This was the first Diplomatico I tasted. I liked it then and like it now. Nothing too special just a really good rum.

My missers decided to buy me an expensive rum (contextually speaking - we're on the Canadian prairies where prices can soar) for a combined Christmas and birthday present, so I had a good look at what was available and settled on the Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva. I was really keen to get it home and give it a try, but . . .

You can tell by the nose that it's really oakey and fragrant, which sounds like a winner right off the bat but first impressions can be so misleading. First the good, which being that it's very smooth and slips down easily without much spice/burn, and it's a lovely dark amber colour (although a friend now tells me that additional colouring is added). It's aromatic and definitely tastes 'expensive,' at least to my relatively uneducated pallet. It has vanilla, leather, vinyl and floral notes and isn't overly sweet, with tiny hints of honey and coffee.

Now the disappointing. Other than the overwhelming impression of leather (I presume from the oak maturation) it has little flavour. There's a hint of petrochemicals on the finish and that's really about it. I therefore confess to being disappointed and I'm kinda sorry I bought it - especially considering how much we paid. I dunno; you might really like it but this rum just isn't in my wheelhouse and I should've gone with my good ol' reliable favourite El Dorado 15.

So there you have it. It was worth a try but some days you get the bear, some days the bear gets you.

It was long time ago when i tried it first. I tried it again yesterday.
It was not good but not bad…
I think maybe a little bit flavourless

My first bottle of this and it's a solid sipper. Tastes like bottled Christmas - rich, smooth and spicy. I like the toffee and raisin notes, with subtle hints of oily orange. Satisfying on the palette with a lingering finish, its reputation is certainly deserved and scores highly in terms of value for money. I look forward to seeing if there can be anything better at this price - it will need to be something truly special!
