Goldenes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase am Anfang sehr leicht, fruchtig und blumig. Jeh länger Er atmet umso mehr gehen die Düfte in die tiefe, gebranntes Karamell, Leder, Tabak, dunkles Holz, Lavagestein.
Im Gaumen, kompromisslos ehrlich und ohne Firlefanz. Angenehm jagen die Aromen von unreifen Früchten, Karamell, Vanille und Eichenholz über die Zunge. Jegliche Süsse fehlt.
im Abgang, sehr holzig und scharf und doch sehr lieblich. Auch die fruchtigen und blumigen Töne schwingen nach.
Ein Ron für Geniesser, finde jedoch diese art von Ron könnte noch ein paar Jahre im Fass lagern, freue mich auf eine Verkostung des 25 yo.

Golden amber in the glass.
In the nose at the beginning very light, fruity and floral. The longer he breathes the more the scents go into the deep, burned caramel, leather, tobacco, dark wood, lava rock.
On the palate, uncompromisingly honest and without frills. The aromas of unripe fruits, caramel, vanilla and oak wood pleasantly haunt the tongue. Any sweetness is missing.
On the finish, very woody and spicy and yet very kind. The fruity and floral tones also resonate.
A Ron for connoisseurs, but think this kind of Ron could be mature for a few more years in the barrel, looking forward to a tasting of the 25 yo.

This has to be one of the smoothes rums out there. It's not as spicy as lets say diplomático and maybe not as full bodied and complex, but man this rum surpriced me in a good way.

Thinking about caramel, a little vanilla honey, chocolate and hint of coffe in the taste profile it's something else then all the rums ive tried before.
It doesn't have much sugar in it but still taste just as sweet as a good rum should. Only reason i dont give it 10/10 but rather a 9/10 is that i want to save my 10 for something that just blows me away.

Every rum drinker should try this one, even those who are used to sugary sweet rums will like this even with it's low sugar content. I only drink my rums neat with one ice cube btw.

I certify this review is my own opinion and that I do not have a professional affiliation with Diplomatico.

It’s has a lovely golden colour. The nose is deep Carmel and spice but is dominated by ethanol at the end. Has a good flavour but has a short finish. It’s not the smoothest either. I do prefer this one with some coconut water ice. Very good on a hot and humid day. I’m going to grab that ice now and finish this night cap with a fuller and smoother flavour. 6.5 really for me and at £35 mark it’s a lovely addition to the cabinet.

This one got a light grassy aroma that turns into a wood almost funky fungus note. Certainly interesting but not the first bottle I would go for as a sipper.

One of my absolute favourites. The bottle feels a bit luxurious.

Light copper color, sweet dry fruit and vanilla notes on the nose. Taste gives oak and spices, quite dry. Then turns to a nice burn/warmth to chest. Taste doesn't last that long.
Maybe not a keeper, but I'll revisit it once in a while.
