The Diplomático Single Vintage 2013 is an ultra-premium, limited-edition Venezuelan rum produced only in exceptional years. It is crafted from a unique blend of distillates (pot still, batch kettle, and Barbet column) that were married together before aging—a first for Diplomático - and then matured for 10 years in ex-bourbon and ex-whisky casks.
Tasting Notes:
Appearance: A rich, dark amber color with warm, toasted almond and golden grape reflections.
Nose: Opening with notes of toasted and slivered almonds, creamy toffee, and fudge, followed by aromas of oak, natural sugarcane, and ripe fruits like orange peel and banana.
Palate: Velvety and rich, the palate offers flavours of dark chocolate with almonds and cherries, nuanced with ripe pear, dates, and raisins.
Finish: The finish is silky, smooth, and long-lasting, with lingering traces of creamy brown sugar and a surprising, refreshing hint of mint chocolate.
"Big notes of banana bread, Christmas cake, and dark molasses all dominate, infused throughout with those spice notes present on the nose. Again, cloves and cola are punchy, while ample, toasty oak notes perk up on the finish. Some red fruit, coffee, and baked apple notes complete a holiday vibe on the lengthy, warming finish. All told it’s a fantastic little rum that merits more contemplation than you might expect." - Christopher Null, Drinkhacker (A-)
"This is a beautiful sipper, spicy with a perfectly balanced sweetness, elements of dark chocolate and vanilla blend with a bit of cherry cordial. Again, I was surprised at how familiar some of these notes are to a lower proof whiskey, while remaining unique in ways that I really enjoyed." - Whiskey & Horror
"If you’re already familiar with Diplomático’s core range of 2–12 year old Reserva Exclusiva, then this newcomer will be a departure. The Reserva has a very conspicuous clove note on the nose, which is absent in the single vintage. Vanilla reigns supreme on the Reserva’s palate, but it plays more of a background role in Single Vintage, undercut by pleasant oak and fruit notes. 2013 Single Vintage has a drier profile overall, but it offers pleasant depth of flavor. We recommend sipping it neat." - Whisky Advocate
