Diplomatico Seleccion de Familia
A solid, sweet-leaning sipper praised for smoothness, honeyed vanilla and gentle wood. Seen as a clear step up from Reserva Exclusiva while staying easygoing and beginner-friendly.
Much more complex and less sweet than the Reserva Exclusiva. I enjoy this one much more. For me, it evokes a strong, dark honey (pine, chestnut, ...) mixed with green herbs (herbal tea) and chocolate. Sipping it reminds me of a lush tropical rainforest.Read more
Those who enjoy smooth, sweeter rums like Reserva Exclusiva and want a slightly drier, more grown-up version for relaxed sipping.

Auto-translatedDie Nase ist angenehm und lässt neben Karamell, Vanille, Holz, und Tabak auf ein gesüßtes Produkt schließen. Am Gaumen bestätigt sich die Süßung durch Honig, Braunen Zucker und Rosinen und wird mit den Eindrücken aus der Nase ergänzt. Gut gewählte Trinkstärke. Der Abgang ist süß, würzig und holzig mit Aromen von Karamell, Vanille und etwas Kräutern, jedoch leicht verwässert. Dennoch eine Empfehlung wert.
Auto-translatedThis rum apparently has a higher proportion of pot still distillate than the two standard bottlings, however, the harmonious profile of this Spanish is masked by the high dosage. Too bad.
Auto-translatedThis Botucal is too sweet for me, although the 43% is a good fit. I had expected a little more. As I've already tried a few Botucals, I would prefer the Botucal #3 from the series, which has been my favorite so far.
