The Diplomatico 2010 Distillery Collection No.3 Pot Still Rum is a limited-edition rum with an ABV of 47% and a volume of 700ml. This exquisite rum is crafted exclusively in the Copper Pot Still, a historic apparatus brought to Diplomatico's La Miel distillery in 1959. It stands as the third release in Diplomatico's Distillery Collection, designed to spotlight the unique distillates that contribute to the brand's globally acclaimed rums. The collection emphasizes the distinct personalities born from various stills, making each bottle a unique experience. This full-bodied, intricate spirit is distilled using high-quality sugar cane honey and matured in ex-bourbon barrels. The result is a rich aroma of tropical fruits, toffee, and vanilla, followed by a palate that bursts with rich oak notes, dark chocolate, and dried fruits. The finish is long-lasting, imbued with warm spices that linger pleasantly. The nose of this rum is beautifully balanced with red fruits, tropical notes, and underlying hints of sugar cane honey and vanilla. Coppery, almost petroleum notes surface, transitioning into a roasted character mingling with motor oil nuances. This nearly Trinidadian aspect evolves into a mineral quality that eventually transforms into a pastry-like sweetness. With aeration, the rum deepens and smooths out, evoking a Black Forest cake with cherry and chocolate notes. Hailing from the Diplomatico distillery, located in Venezuela amidst sugarcane fields at the foot of the Andes, this rum benefits from a unique terroir. Although the distillery has been in operation since 1959, Diplomatico gained international recognition only in 2002. The complexity of this rum is tied to the type of still used—whether Brennblasen, Column Stills, or Batch Kettles—each contributing to its multifaceted profile. This expression from the Diplomatico Distillery Collection has been aged for 8 years before bottling, and only 5000 bottles were produced, making it a must-have for rum connoisseurs.
