Diplomatico Rum Planas

Ultimate Beverage Challenge 92 points - This classic rum opens with an intoxicating nose of banana, cocoa butter, brown spice, and baked apple. Luscious and mouth-filling, banana and toasted coconut shine through on the palate with a creamy, milk chocolate-laden finish. Quite decadent..March/2017

Planas is the replacement for Diplomatico Blanco. It is made the same as the Blanco expression, but has one key difference: the ABV is now 46%. Due to Venezuelan law, rum cannot be bottled until it is as least two years old. However, in this case some of the rums are aged up to six years. The blend is then charcoal filtered up to six times, removing all colour and creating a very refined, smooth white rum, perfect for mixing a mojito or daiquiri. A very unique white rum.
