The story behind it

The maker

Diplomático was established in Venezuela in 1959, combining traditional Spanish heritage with local sugar cane quality. The brand's signature 'Mantuano' name honors Don Juancho, a local nobleman whose passion for collecting exceptional spirits inspired the distillery's unique blending style.

How it is made

Distilled at the foot of the Andes Mountains, this rum utilizes both column and pot still distillates before aging. The spirit matures in ex-bourbon and ex-malt whisky barrels to develop its deep wood-aged complexity.
