The Dictador 1976 Generations En Lalique No.1 is a unique rum bottle that is the result of a partnership between the Colombian rum brand Dictador and the prestigious French crystal manufacturer Lalique. This limited edition decanter is a tribute to the Parra family, with only 300 pieces produced, each one numbered and hand-engraved. The crystal decanter, designed by Marc Larminaux, features motifs that evoke the crystalline waters of the Caribbean and is made of clear, frosted crystal, giving it the appearance of a work of art.
In terms of flavor, the Dictador 1976 Generations En Lalique No.1 offers a deep, complex taste that is sure to please even the most discerning palates. The rum opens with a rich, dark chocolate flavor, followed by a touch of burnt orange peel and clove. Nutmeg, dry oak, rich leather, and Madagascar vanilla beans add to the complexity of the rum, as do high-quality coffee and a hint of star anise. The rum also features smoky, toasty, cigar tobacco notes, as well as woody spices and a slight sweetness of sultanas, rich baked plums, medjoul dates, and fig leaves.
The finish is long and complemented by rich dark chocolate and drier notes of earthy, woody spices. Other flavor notes include freshly polished wood, leather accents, ripe plums, clove, cocoa powder, black cherry, nutmeg, cinnamon, roasted pineapple, and rose petals. This rum is a four-handed blend, created by Dario and Ernan Parra, a father and son team, and is a special assemblage created to honor the partnership with Lalique. All of the rums in the assemblage are from 1976 and have been aged in American oak and porto casks.

Reviewers appreciated the intricate and luxurious design of the handmade decanter, noting its artistic value. They praised the rum's wonderfully fruity and spicy profile, highlighting the smoky oak undertones and the pleasant explosion of flavors on the palate. The long finish was particularly noted as delightful. Some mentioned that while the rum is excellent, its high price may not be justified for every consumer.
