Distilled in 2008, this exclusive vintage rum from Diplomatico hails from Venezuela and boasts a unique maturation journey. It spent 12 enriching years in a blend of ex-Bourbon barrels and single malt whisky casks, culminating in a final year of refinement in oloroso sherry casks. The Single Vintages from Diplomatico are always excellent.
Diplomatico is renowned as the rum of Venezuela, meticulously crafted at the DUSA distillery. The production process involves using both molasses and sugar cane honey, with fermentation lasting one to two days using the distillery's proprietary yeast strain. Depending on the desired style of rum, distillation occurs in column stills, batch kettles, or pot stills. The aging process utilizes Bourbon, malt whisky, and sherry casks. The master blender, Tito Cordero, skillfully harmonizes the contents of these casks to create a balanced and layered rum. Diplomatico rums are celebrated globally and come in various expressions. The Single Vintages are part of the brand's Prestige Range, distilled in pot stills in the indicated year and aged for twelve years in Bourbon and single malt casks, with an additional 12 months in sherry casks.
This rum's uniqueness lies in its maturation journey, spending 12 years in ex-Bourbon and single malt whisky casks before an additional year in oloroso sherry casks, which imparts a distinct complexity and depth of flavor.
