Diplomático Mantuano Rum

About Diplomático Mantuano Rum

Named Diplomático in honor of the statesman who brought order and balance to a restless era in Venezuela during the 19th century, these rums are the exquisite product of Venezuela's warm, tropical climate. The sunny days, cool nights, constant breeze and abundant rainfall create an idyllic environment for growing and cultivating juicy, fresh sugarcane. The sugarcane is harvested, fermented and distilled into rum, before being aged in a range of bourbon, port and sherry casks. They are then masterfully blending by the hands of Tito Cordero, Diplomático’s maestro ronero.

Diplomatico’s line features a range of column, batch kettle, and pot still rums. Serving as the replacement for Diplomatico’s signature Reserva rum, Mantuano, which translate to ‘nobleman,' is a tribute to Don Juancho's prominence and passion for travel, as well as his discovery of new spirits, predominantly rums. Mantuano is aged for up to eight years, and is blend consisting of Column, Batch Kettle, and Pot Still rums and distilled from molasses and sugar cane honey.

Each bottle of Diplomatico features the image of Don Juancho. “Dark and richly flavored with a texture to match – oily and sticky. The sweetness is tempered by gentle notes of oak and char, making it excellent, easy drinking sipping rum with enough punch to add a rich backbone to a cocktail without getting lost” (producer).
