Product Information

At its location at the foot of The Andes in the Terepaima National Park, the distillery has been producing top-quality spirits for over 50 years and has achieved cult status with rum connoisseurs across the globe. The distillery was designed for versatility, with three pot stills and four column stills distilling different styles of spirit from top-grade molasses and sugar cane honeys. The distillery boasts having been awarded the ISO 14001 for sustainability. Destilerias Unidas does all it can to ensure the facility has as little impact on its beautiful environment as possible.

The skill of the master distiller and the craft of the master blender work in perfect harmony to create the Diplomatico range. This includes expressions differing in character, suggested drinking style and price, but all with the underlying hallmark of a rum of the highest calibre.

Overseeing the whole operation is the erudite, Tito Cordero, who has worked at DUSA since 1988. Tito is one of rum's most celebrated master blenders and his accolades include Master Blender Of The Year at the 2011 and 2013 Golden Barrel Awards. Tito is currently also president of The Ron de Venezuela DOC Regulatory Council.

Diplomatico 'Mantuano', "nobleman", reflects Don Juancho's status as well as his passion for travel and the discovery of new spirits particularly rum. Don Juancho's picture is present on each of Diplomatico's Tradition rage.

Aged for up to eight years, Mantuano is a blend of column still, batch kettle and pot still rums and made from molasses and sugar cane honey. Designed specially to offer true versatility, it is fantastic when mixed in all manner of cocktails, or can simply be enjoyed neat or over ice.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Thick, heavy and sweet, like wading through molasses. With some time, black treacle, cherries and Millionaire's Shortbread come through, wrapped in sweet liquorice and milk chocolate.

Palate: Spicier than expected from the nose, but rich and oily in texture. Cinnamon and nutmeg lead into sharper notes of polished oak before caramel sauce, soft toffees and hints of balancing bitter barrel char.

Finish: Soft and sweet, with herbal hints slowly fading to leave spicy oak.
