Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva Rum

A complex blend of copper pot still rums aged for 12 long years has a characterful nose showing fruit cake rum ‘n’ raisin ice cream cocoa dried ginger cinnamon and clove. Develops baked bananas with fudge sauce and chewy toffee notes alongside vanilla oak and a deeper note of syrupy gingerbread with hints of orange zest. The palate evokes chocolate sauce and the sweet toffee fudge and tropical fruit flavors from the nose. Flakes of terry’s dark chocolate orange sprinkled over melted vanilla ice cream. Deep vivid and extremely seductive flavors. 40% abv rating: ultimate beverage challenge 93 points (apr 2014).
