Introducing the Dictador 1998 Capitulo I Port Cask Colombian Rum, a masterfully crafted spirit that embodies the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of the Dictador brand. Distilled in 1998 and aged for an impressive 22 years, this rum was bottled in 2020, and only 900 bottles were made available, making it a true collector's item. With an ABV of 42% and presented in a 700ml bottle, this rum is an exquisite representation of Colombian rum-making tradition. On the nose, the Dictador 1998 captivates with intoxicating notes of cocoa, freshly roasted coffee, and indulgent vanilla. As you savor it, the influence of the port cask becomes evident, enhancing the enticing nature of this rum with hints of licorice and stewed prunes. Tasting it neat or on the rocks unveils a robust sweetness from the red port, balanced by moderate fruitiness, a touch of apple, and delicate spices, complemented by brown sugar and oak undertones. The flavor experience is enriched by a harmonious blend of alcohol and spice. The finish is long and evolves from the initial port sweetness into a slightly bitter end, a characteristic that adds depth and complexity to its profile. The Dictador 1998 Capitulo I shines even when mixed with Pepsi Zero, highlighting brown sugar notes and offering a smooth, short but satisfying finish. This rum is a testament to Dictador's commitment to excellence and their dedication to producing rums that are both memorable and distinct.
This rum is unique due to its 22-year aging process and the use of port casks, which impart complex flavors and aromas. Additionally, it's a limited edition with only 900 bottles available.
