Diplomatico Planas Premium Venezuelan Aged White Rum 70cl - RV Drinks

This distinctive rum takes its name from the Planas region surrounding the distillery, situated at the foot of the Andes and encircled by sugar processing plants and the picturesque Terepaima National Park, an area whose micro-climate shapes the rum's complex tropical profile. Fresh tropical notes of coconut and ripe fruit dominate the aromatic profile alongside subtle ground coffee and creamy vanilla, developing into a creamy, layered palate of tropical fruit, cocoa-butter sweetness and smooth toffee richness followed by nutty, cappuccino-like depth, closing clean and slightly spicy with pleasant lingering warmth that defies its deceptively clear appearance at a genuinely bold 47% ABV.

FAQs

What is the significance of the name 'Planas'?

It's named after the Planas region surrounding the distillery, situated at the foot of the Andes near the Terepaima National Park, an area whose micro-climate shapes the rum's tropical complexity.

What is the ABV of Diplomatico Planas?

It's bottled at 47% ABV, notably higher than the norm for white rum in Venezuela.

Why is Diplomatico Planas aged despite being a white rum?

Venezuelan law requires rum to age at least 2 years, and Diplomatico takes this further, ageing Planas for up to 6 years in ex-bourbon casks before charcoal filtering it to remove colour while retaining flavour.

What does Diplomatico Planas taste like?

Expect fresh coconut and tropical fruit on the nose with ground coffee, developing into a creamy palate of cocoa-butter and toffee, finishing clean and slightly spicy.
