Ron Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva Rum

I'm primarily a Bourbon and Rye drinker... with an occasional Scotch thrown in. However, several weeks back the manager of a restaurant, that my wife and I went to, noticed I was interested in/ordering Bourbon. He asked me if I liked Rum — to which I told him, yes — but mainly dark rum. His eyes lit up and shortly thereafter, he brought me over two samples of Rum to try: Kirk & Sweeney and Diplomatico Reserva. They both impressed, so I ordered a glass of the Diplomatico. Soon after, I bought a bottle... The color of this Rum is a deep mahogany. Reminds me of mole. The palate is sweet with flavors of dark cherries, and I'll be damned if I'm not getting "grape jelly", as well. This Rum is aged in Bourbon barrels, and you can taste it. It's probably why I like it so much — it was a smooth and seamless diversion away from my whiskey comfort zone. I've had the usual rums: Captain Morgan, Myers's Dark, etc. But this stuff is something else. I don't dare mix this. It deserves to be sipped neat or with an ice cube. I prefer the latter.

달달하고 부드러움 40도인데도 목넘김이 부드러워 잘 넘어감 커피향 바닐라향

Caramelized bananas and vanilla on the nose. Simply delicious on the palate with more caramel and tropical fruits. The finish is long and warm, with a bit of cinnamon. Sipping this is the beverage equivalent of laying on a pristine white sand beach in the Caribbean.
