The second in a limited-edition series from acclaimed Venuezelan rum producers Diplomático, this is a smooth, fruity rum that has gained extra complexity from its oak aging. The name of this bottling comes from the Barbet Column Still – brought to Diplomático’s La Miel distillery 1959 – in which the spirit is made.
This is part of the limited-edition Distillery Collection, which gives each of Diplomático’s distillates a chance to individually shine.
The N°2 Barbet Rum expression is a part of The Distillery Collection, a threesome of special edition rums, each distilled a different way. This one was distilled using a French continuous Barbet column still the La Miel distillery got in 1959. Made from sugar cane molasses and matured for 4 years in ex-bourbon and whisky American white oak barrels, it's a well-balanced, tropical, fruity, and oaky spirit.
