About Diplomatico Ambassador Selection Rum

Diplomatico Ambassador Selection Rum has a reputation for its exquisite taste and quality. Hand-crafted in Venezuela, Diplomatico's rich history dates back to the late 1950s. It is the work of Its Master Blender, Tito Cordero, who is one of only a few Rum Masters globally.

What makes Diplomatico stand out is its meticulous process from cane to bottle. It uses sugar cane honey and yeast for fermentation, then distilled in copper pot stills before being aged in casks for up to twelve years. It is one of the few rums in the world to adhere strictly to the 'Complex Distillation' process.

This beautiful rum has earned itself numerous awards, including the 'Master' at The Rum Masters (The Spirits Business), further underlining its impeccable quality. With its unique process, rich heritage, and extraordinary taste, it is an exceptional choice for rum connoisseurs.

Production Notes

Diplomatico Ambassador Selection Rum is crafted meticulously from the start. It commences with the selection of the best sugar cane, converting it into sugar cane honey. The honey undergoes fermentation, employing a proprietary strain of yeast developed in-house.

It is then distilled in ancient copper pot stills, following which it enters a long aging process in white oak barrels for up to twelve years, capturing the environment's unique characteristics.

Before bottling, the rum is transferred to Pedro Ximenez sherry casks for an additional two years, intensifying its flavors and providing it with its incredibly complex character and unique taste.
