EXTRA INFORMATIE:
Diplomatico Rum
The barbet column still was brought to Diplomático’s La Miel distillery in 1959. This continuous distillation system is originally from France. The barbet rum is produced from sugar cane molasses and aged in American white oak barrels, that previously served to age bourbon and whisky, for 4 years.
Distillation
Diplomático rums are distilled using a rich variety of methods, including various continuous column stills for light rums, batch kettle for intermediate rums, and pot stills for more complex rums.
The alcohol obtained from the fermentation process is heated, employing the methods mentioned above, to separate its components. The vaporised alcohol is then condensed to form the raw spirit.
This process enables the purification of alcohol and is key in defining the character and profile of each Diplomático rum.
Ageing
Diplomático rums are aged in different types of casks, predominantly former bourbon and malt whisky barrels. A selection of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso Sherry casks is used to finish the Single Vintage and Ambassador rums. For both of these prestige offerings, the rums are placed back into the barrel for an optimum finish after the blending process.
