Whenever I serve the Diplomatico Exclusiva Reserva at any large gathering it is always well received. It is sweeter than most rums in its category; but that sweet flavour profile appears to strike the right cord for most people. I admit though that my own appreciation for the spirit seems to have dampened somewhat over the past several years.
The Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva is a very enjoyable, sweet, easy going drink with a little complexity to it. However, whether it is indeed the world’s greatest rum is another matter. To me it is just a little bit too sweet and really not all that complex and very un-rum like in many ways.
