Diplomatico Planas

Diplomatico Planas is Venezuela’s most sophisticated white rum — aged up to six years at the La Miel Distillery and then charcoal filtered to remove the color while retaining the complexity and smoothness that the extended aging develops, producing a white rum with genuine aged character that most unaged white rums cannot achieve.

The concept of Planas is counterintuitive in the rum category: most white rums are unaged or minimally aged and rely on charcoal filtration or simple distillation for their character. Planas ages for up to six years — developing real dried tropical fruit, vanilla, and wood complexity — and then charcoal filters the color away, preserving the aged character in a crystal-clear presentation. The result is a white rum that works in cocktails like a premium unaged white (clear, clean, mixable) while delivering the smoothness and complexity of a properly aged spirit. An unusually sophisticated choice for rum cocktails where the rum’s character matters.
