About the Distillery

How this product is made
” Ingredients: Mantuano Añejo is made from high-quality sugarcane molasses, a byproduct of sugar production. The use of molasses contributes to the rum’s rich and robust flavors.
Fermentation: The molasses is mixed with water and yeast to initiate fermentation. This process converts the sugars in the molasses into alcohol, producing a low-alcohol liquid known as “sugar wine.”
Distillation: The sugar wine is distilled in copper pot stills or column stills, creating a higher-proof spirit known as “new make” rum. Diplomático is well-known for using a combination of distillation methods to achieve its signature flavor profile.
Aging: The new make rum is aged in a combination of American white oak and Spanish sherry casks for up to eight years. This extended aging process allows the rum to develop its complex and mature flavors.
Blending: After aging, the rums from various casks are carefully selected and blended by the master blender to achieve a consistent flavor profile.
Bottling: The blended rum is then carefully diluted to the desired alcohol by volume (ABV) and bottled for distribution.”
