Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva — rums aged up to 12 years in ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. Chocolate, toffee and tropical fruit.
Reserva Exclusiva is the bottle that made Diplomático’s name and remains one of the most awarded premium rums in the world. It is a blend of rums aged up to twelve years in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks — the bourbon wood bringing vanilla and caramel, the sherry wood bringing dried fruit and depth.
The result is rich and remarkably approachable: a rum with the complexity to reward attention but none of the sharp edges that put newcomers off. At 40% ABV it is easy to enjoy neat, over ice, or in a properly made Old Fashioned. If there is a benchmark for accessible luxury rum, this is it.
Serve with: a large ice cube and nothing else, or in a Rum Old Fashioned or Rum Manhattan.

It sits at the richer, rounder end of the rum spectrum — chocolate, toffee and dried fruit rather than dry and spirity. That is what makes it such a reliable crowd-pleaser.
Both work. Neat or over ice shows the full 12-year character; in an Old Fashioned it gives the drink real body.
It is a blend — the oldest component rums are up to twelve years old, with younger rums in the mix for balance and freshness.
