Ron Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva Rum

Very smooth. Has some sweetness, but not too sweet. One of my favorites.

I am not familiar with rums and have nothing to compare it to but I would say I like this. I can taste molasses and it has the right amount of sweetness. I would buy this again.

The nose is clearly sugar cane. As it falls off you get a smooth light hint of several flavors. Part of the smoothness comes from the lack of alcohol taste that so many other shippers have at the finish. I disagree with the reviewers complaining that it is an overpowering sugar. It isn’t too much but is the highlight you notice since it is the primary focus. Good but can’t have it as my everyday supper because it goes down to easily.

Nose: Light honey, faint vanilla & brown sugar. Taste: Really sweet so not for everyone. Does has a slight burn after swallowing so it's not like drinking simple syrup. Vanilla, brown sugar...yeah, I can get a tad of butterscotch, too. On the tongue it has a viscosity to it like thinned honey ("oily" in whisky parlance). This would make a good dessert drink. As someone stated, I agree that this works well with some water; I tried it again with ice and it was a slightly better drink. Rating is based on neat sipping.
