Dictador 1999 RIMA 1 Sherry Cask 23yo is a distinguished rum originating from Colombia, a country renowned for its coffee, cigars, and exceptional rums. The Dictador brand, with a name that commands respect, was founded in 1913 in Cartagena de Indias by Don Julio Arango y Parra. Today, the brand remains under family ownership, guided by Don Hernan, the nephew of the original founder, despite the involvement of international investors since 2009. This traditional Colombian rum, crafted from sugarcane honey—a concentrate derived from sugarcane juice—has gained worldwide recognition. The Dictador Rima series is a limited vintage collection created under the vigilant eye of Master Blender Hernan Parra. Each rum in this series is aged in American oak and receives its finishing touch in either Sherry or Port wine casks. The Dictador 1999 RIMA 1, a 23-year-old rum with an ABV of 45%, has undergone a Sherry cask finish, enhancing its profile with fruity and spicy aromas. Limited to just 860 bottles, this exquisite rum offers a complex and rich tasting experience, making it a true collector's item.
Its unique character comes from being a part of the limited Rima series, the 23-year aging process, and the Sherry cask finish that imparts fruity and spicy nuances.
This rum is produced by Dictador in Colombia, from sugarcane honey distilled in Cartagena de Indias.
Only 860 bottles of this limited edition rum were produced, making it a rare and exclusive release.

As a seasoned rum enthusiast, I find Dictador 1999 RIMA 1 Sherry Cask 23yo to be an exemplary representation of Colombian rum at its finest. The meticulous attention to detail in its production is evident in every sip. The Sherry cask finish adds an extra layer of depth and complexity, making it a truly memorable experience for any rum connoisseur. Limited to just 860 bottles, this rare gem is a must-have for collectors and those who appreciate the art of fine rum.
