Diplomatico Añejo - Review

Diplomatico Añejo


Rum Info: 

Despite the literal translation of añejo in Spanish to mean ‘aged’, this is in fact the youngest of the Diplomatico family (besides the Blanco). Made with a column still distillation process and aged for a minimum four years, this Venezuelan rum is light and well balanced. A great starter rum for those who prefer not to follow the herd.
Diplomatico Anejo - with some cheeky Ting

Description:

A beautiful shimmering gold coloured rum that really catches the light and which has a taste to match.  Your mouth is greeted with a light taste with subtle notes of chocolate and vanilla, finishing with a nice kick at the back of the throat.

Best Serving Suggestion:

This rum certainly works well with our classic go to of rum with coke and three wedges of lime. However this light rum would really balance out anything with ginger or chilli so a Cuban Mule really would be a treat with this rum. Lime and Ting also wouldn't go a miss. For the adventures, you could experiment with earl grey infused gomme, ginger, orange, and Grand Marnier. Shaken with ice and double strained into a martini glass or quirky English teacup and saucer.

Ratings:

A Solid 3 Limes out of 5.
