Great sipping rum.
On nose and mouth we have: Vanilla, caramel, toffee and an hint of cinnamon.
It’s smooth, sweet and really easy to sip.
Perfect rum for begginers and still good for connoisseurs. A little too sugared for me.
Hightly recommended.

($72 CAD) Well after a long search, I found the Diplomatico in Saskatchewan. For whatever reason, the Dip dipped from Alberta which unfortunately led to higher expectations. (Especially given them SK prices...)
Smells heavily of cola and molasses with a little vanilla, quite intriguing.
Taste is a bit subdued, but maybe I’m just used to the Mantuano which seems to have more character. Heavy dose of cola with a side of sweetness. Decent finish that holds some dried fruit and nuts with plenty of oak.
Overall: not bad. I think the Mantuano has much more value though. This dram is sweet and easy to drink but I would appreciate more character.

One of the finest Rum I have tasted so far.. You can smell a little bit the orange peel and toffee. I can recommend you if you sip a little bit of this Rum and you eat a piece of chocolate with it, then it's fantastic!
Very aromatic, three cubes of ice, two finger pour and wait 3 mins. Flavor a just open up...enjoy.

Easy transition if you’re just getting into rum. Switched me on and I’ve since branched out, but it’s still a nice sipper. Great price point. Enjoyable flavor.

For not having a ridiculous age statement (18 years or whatever written in bold font,) this is the smoothest rum that doesn't slap you in the face with how smooth it SHOULD be. Supposedly it is 12 years aged, however the bottle doesn't tell that tale. Either way, this is like drinking silk. It's stupid smooth! There's also zero bite and its perfectly sweetened. While it might seem underwhelming to some as a result of all that (some people like challenges that let them know they're drinking booze,) this is my gold/light (because I don't use light) rum of choice when I make cocktails. It's not cheap but it's well worth the money, and yes, you can (and I do,) drink it Neat or On the Rocks too. This is one of my four essential bottles in my house and I keep two on hand at all times. Yes, it's that good and that important to my cocktail making. Buy it immediately!

Seriously ?!

out of 10
Nose : sugar, fudge, cheap rum, cough syrup.
Taste : sugar, fudge, cheap rum, cough syrup. Very un-natural (who wrote about oak, vanilla or refined aromas? Where is it ??)
Finish : what ? Ah yes, some cheap candy aftertaste. And the need to drink a large glass of water after all that cloying , palate-drying sugar.
Worst than I thought. Very disappointed. It is not even a good flavoured rum liqueur.
This beverage dos not taste like an aged rum by any way. Everyone has the right to drink and enjoy it , I have no problem with that but please, please, stop to call it a rum !!!
Nez : sucre, caramel, alcool type rhum de base pour les gâteaux, sirop pour la toux (plus précisément : broncorhinol, pour les français!)
En bouche : pareil. Ecoeurant et artificiel. Qui a parlé de boisé ou de vanille, ils sont passés où ???
Final : arrière goût bizarre comme après un bonbon. Envie immédiate de boire un grand verre d'eau après tout ce sucre écœurant.
C'est bien pire que ce qu'on m'avait décrit. Une mauvaise blague, à peine un rhum arrangé, on pourrait peut être appeler ça "liqueur à base de rhum" ?
Cette boisson n'a en aucune manière le moindre point commun avec un vieux rhum. Chacun a le droit d'aimer ça, aucun problème... mais s'il vous plait arrêtez de dire que vous aimez le rhum, ça n'en est pas.
