Diplomatico Distillery Collection No2 Barbet Rum. Late in 2017 Diplomatico released two new expressions. These expressiona are designed to highlight the different types of rum that Diplomatico can produce at their distillery.
I do feel these releases have been produced to try and appeal to those who perhaps are more critical of Diplomatico’s sweetened rums – such as the Reserva Exclusiva, Single Vintage releases and their highest priced rum the Ambassador.
Dictador Distillery Icon Reserve Aged 20 Years Solera System Rum. Quite a mouthful but thats what they’ve put on the label. Quite how Aged 20 Years and “Solera System Rum” works is anyones guess, however.
Dictador are a rum brand from Colombia. They also have lines of coffee, cigars and gin. I’ve not been around the rum scene for that long but Dictador 12 was one of the first “premium” rums I bought. I reviewed it in the early days of this blog. As was one of the aims of this blog I have learnt a great deal about rum since then. I won’t revisit that review until I have completed this one. I don’t recall being blown away by Dictador 12 though.
Bacardi Reserva Limitada has long been Bacardi’s most “Premium” offering. As seems to be the way with “Premium” rum producers rather than do anything remotely interesting, different or innovative they tend to just re-hash the same old thing. Repeating the same things which initially gave them success. Which kind of becomes a bit boring.
