Diplomatico Rum Distillery Collection No 3 Pot Still

This Rum is Quite deserty with a slight funk. On the nose we get banana sweets, marmalade, dry figs and toffee. Strawberry jam, sweet plums and caramel. Dusty leather, sawdust, coffee liqueur, faded acetone and a hint of cinnamon. 

On the palate is definitely heavier. Dark chocolate, black pepper, sultanas, slightly salted caramel, strawberries and mangoes. Some toasted oak, tobacco and a hint of varnish. Pineapple, vanilla, butterscotch and a pinch of chilli powder. None of the flavours overpower the other although the thicker toffee-like texture dominates upfront then the heavier fruity-spicy elements come mid palate and towards the end.

The finish is medium with some mild funk and spiciness.
