Diplomático’s distillery lies at the feet of the Andes Mountains in Venezuela, a privileged location for rum making. The area boasts great conditions for sugar cane growth and for rum production, with fertile lands, abundant water and a tropical weather. Established in 1959, the distillery is unique as it houses three different distillation processes that are combined to deliver unique rums. It has also been a pioneer in the implementation of sustainable practices throughout the rum-making process.
This premium white sipping rum takes its name from the Planas Valley, a region located close to the Diplomático distillery, nestled at the foot of the Andes Mountains – the perfect terroir and micro-climate to produce the finest rums. An elegant and rich blend, Planas is surprisingly intense for a white rum. The delicate smoothness is expertly balanced by an explosion of flavours and aromas.
