Diplomtico Single Vintage 2007 | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: On the nose, there is a slight floral and acidic overtone, with a little candy sugar. This is followed by a darker colouring, with hints of molasses, slightly oxidised nuts and thick-skinned black fruit.

Palate: On the palate, the sweetness of the vanilla caramel gently coats the palate, for a rather light and velvety rum. The more roasted flavours are totally melted in this smooth sensation, and the few dark fruits only appear in small touches.

Finish: The finish is tasty, studded with sweet nuts and molasses.

Distillery Information

The Diplomatico rum range is produced in Venezuela by the talented Destilerias Unidas S.A. (DUSA), which lies at the foot of the Andes Mountains. The distillery was previously owned by Licorerias Unidas S.A. (LUSA), with Seagrams being the biggest shareholder in the early days. In 2002, LUSA went up for sale and was bought by a group of Venezuelan entrepreneurs and soon became 100% Venezuelan and privately owned.The inspiration for the Diplomatico name comes from Don Juancho Nieto Melendez, whose portrait adorns their labels. He was rather fond of rum and interesting in its production process, including such intricate little details like how environmental-factors affect the flavour profile. He also had a rather handsome collection of rums from his travels to the Caribbean, which his friends called The Ambassadors Reserves – he certainly sounds like the chap youd want to name a rum brand after!
