According to Javelle Taft, bar manager at Death & Co.’s East Village outpost, it’s important to remember the origins of rum when considering the spirit today, something that certain brands are actively striving to do. “Rum was birthed out of colonialism and slave labor,” he says. “Since the turn of the century, Caribbean island style rum producers are working hard to reset the tragic history of where rum is today, in comparison to how it started.” Maturation is in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels of American oak and in French Limousin oak some of which previously held wine or Cognac. Each tier corresponds to a specific age. The contents, however, are a blend of all the liquids that have passed through each criadera. As the sherry moves down through the different criaderas the average age increases. The stated age of the solera corresponds to the date the solera was started, i.e., the oldest portion of the sherry in the blend. The older the solera, the tinier the amount of the original sherry that is still retained.To make, simply mix and stir all ingredients together with plenty of ice.

The Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva is the flagship product under the Diplomatico umbrella. They are made mainly from sugarcane honey with rum blends that are aged for up to 12 years under the hot Venezuelan sun. The ageing results in the loss of nearly 60 per cent of the spirit due to evaporation. What is left is a luxury sipping rum with aromas of orange peel, toffee, and liquorice. The taste is complex and well-balanced, with notes of wood and vanilla, with a seductive long-lasting finish. INDIA IS THE ONLY COUNTRY IN ASIA WHERE THE ENTIRE DIPLOMÁTICO RANGE WILL BE AVAILABLE.
