Diplomático No.2 Barbet Rum Distillery Collection 70cl, 47%

Description

Diplomático No.2 Barbet Rum Distillery Collection 70cl, 47% is a limited Venezuelan rum created to highlight one of Diplomático’s distinctive distillation methods. As part of the Distillery Collection, No.2 focuses on the Barbet column still, giving this release a lighter, drier and more elegant character compared with the richer, sweeter style many drinkers associate with the brand.

This expression is produced from sugar cane molasses and distilled in the Barbet column still, a French continuous distillation system brought to the Diplomático distillery in Venezuela in 1959. It is aged for around 4 years in American white oak barrels, creating a profile built around tropical fruit, fresh citrus, vanilla, toasted oak, gentle spice and a slightly dry finish.

Bottled at 47%, this rum has more structure and intensity than a standard 40% bottling, while still keeping the polished Diplomático character. With only 5,000 bottles released worldwide and each bottle individually numbered, it has strong appeal for both rum drinkers and collectors.

Why Choose Diplomático No.2 Barbet Rum Distillery Collection 70cl, 47%

This release stands out because it shows a more precise and distillation-focused side of Diplomático. The Barbet column still gives the rum a clean, elegant and fruit-led profile, with a drier edge than many of the brand’s classic expressions.

For drinkers, it offers a refined sipping experience with tropical fruit, citrus, vanilla, toasted oak and soft spice. For collectors, the numbered bottle, original presentation box and 5,000-bottle worldwide release make it a desirable piece from the Diplomático Distillery Collection.
