The thing that suprise me the most, is that the rum is on 47% without being too strong. Of course it gives it a strong power, but it's wrapped in soft sweetness, and could not be better balanced. PLEASE TRY IT!!!!!

Nose : I find dark chocolate, sherry, power and small hints of vanilla.

Taste : I find dark chocolate, roasted nuts, sherry, orange, molasses and a great power. The rum is so thick and delicious, that it lubricates your mouth while you drink it, delicious!!
The aftertaste is deep, strong and with the perfect little sweetness, that ends up with molasses.

Du you self a favour and try this rum if you like sweet rums, but with a strong power that kicks you in the mouth on the same time!!

The concept is really nice.. Great box, nice bottle, one of the meanest corks i have ever seen..

The color is awesome.. The scent is descent.. A little bit too much coffe and even alcohol.. The taste is too much of alcohol. But it´s a dark and complex taste.. The finish is whats kills it for me.. A clear taste of pure alcohol which fades out and leaves me what should have been there.. A dark complex finish.. Maybe i will try it with ice in the summer.. But for those money i shouldn´t have to manipulate it at all..

This is a great rum. But I think there is better and cheaper rums. The Diplomatico Single Vintage 2000 for example.

Fancy and good, easy to drink, but at this pricetag I can find better. Way better. In the diplo series I Would pick their s.v 2000 over this anytime and its half price.

Was not expecting the quality of this rum. The reserva exclusiva is pure sugar water and the single vintage line is decent, but this is something else. That said, the diplomatico lineage is still obvious. The nose is thick, with full, soft, oaky notes, a bit of chocolate, flambed banana and heavy caramel. The first sip surprises a bit. It's fat and oily with a deep, yet soft and subtle caramel and chocolate character. Notes of prunes and banana also peaks out. The deep caramel note is countered by full, complex, oaky notes, but it's not particularly dry. The strength of the rum builds up the notes and makes the taste full and interessting, but still pleasant at the same time.There's a very long, big bodied aftertaste, and you feel a nice heat building up in your mouth and chest. If you feel like parting with a substantial pile of cash and like sweet rum, consider throwing it at this. it's good but considering the pricetag and slightly masking sweetness, this rum can't compete in this price bracket.

the peak of all the rums I tasted it's for special occasion paid over $280 so you can expect something special and it is, if you can afford it try it.

I had high expectations considering the reviews and hefty price of that rum. Indeed it is a great rum but it did not 'wow' me enough to get a 10. I tasted it after the Vizcaya and thought the latter was smoother but Diplomatico Ambassador has a more complex taste. I guess I need to give it a second try.

Très cher, trop peut être...
j'ai mis du temps a l'avoir, mais je le voulais, et il vaut le coup.
fruits secs, épices et vanille avec une pointe de fumé par dessus.
Très complexe, la finale est longue et chaleureuse, c'est une invitation pour réitérer l'expérience...
je l'adore et vais le boire lentement... pour l'amortir...
