when compared side-to-side with their 12Y product, it's definitely different... but better? not quite. expensive? yes.

so for your tastebuds wanting Dictador flavor, reach for lesser priced but equally tasty 12Y.

but if prices don't factor in at your purchases, go ahead and add a bottle to your collection.

I really like the smell of this rum. Caramel, vanilla, cocoa, honey, oak, nutmeg, and mild tobacco. The taste isn't quite as good. Similar notes, but I find it harsh. Not a bad rum, but not great either.

Smells fantastic, sweet brown sugar. Taste is smooth with just the right amount of spice. The only reason it's not a 9/10 for me is it's not as complex as I'd expect for a 20-yr. Some caramel, sweet molasses and a little fruity finish come through - but none stand out that much to be distinctly great.

Une jolie bouteille, soyeuse au toucher et totalement opaque. Elle révèle un liquide de belle couleur ambrée. Le nez manque de richesse. La dégustation révèle immédiatement cette saveur de café retrouvée par tous, elle est en effet prédominante. Le reste est un peu pauvre. Manque d'intérêt.
Une marque 100% marketing, sans intérêt…. et sans distillerie !!???

I was fairly disappointed when i tried this one.. Had so high expectations when i saw the bottle.. I had read some reviews before.. And the taste.. Mostly alcohol and mild tastes.. Far from one my favourites.

Like his young brother, I don't like this rum very much, because it has a (too) strong tobacco taste, but it's a little bit better then the 12 year one!

Distillerie : Destileria Colombiana
Provenance : Colombie

Ce rhum Dictador 20 ans est un rhum dit "traditionnel" qui nous vient de Colombie. Passé les nombreuses médailles qu'il a raflé en 2012 -et sa bouteille au look novateur- il faut dire ce qui est : c'est un Excellent rhum!

Vieillis selon la méthode de la Solera dans des fûts de chêne, il possède une richesse aromatique (certes complexe) hors norme.

Passé sa belle couleur cuivre oranger, on remarque d'entrée une douce odeur de café ; odeur qui reste et qui devient même encore plus forte une fois le verre vide. De la vanille, une odeur discrète de noix, une fraicheur fruitée assez intéressante et plaisante aussi.

En bouche on a l'impression de retrouver la même palette aromatique dans le même ordre, avec toujours ce café assez présent. L'attaque est soyeuse, tres agréable, végétale et finement boisée.

Le finale est long et les fleurs ont la part belle, ainsi qu'une pointe d'agrumes et une légère note fruitée.

Les amateurs du rhum Diplomatico apprécierons chaque gorgée de ce Dictador 20 ans ; il a même ma préférence, et ça ne changera pas tout de suite.

A luxurious rum with complex flavors of caramel, toffee, and spices. Velvety texture with a long, satisfying finish

If you like very dark and oaky rums, this is for you.

OMG sooooooo gooooood! Glad I had the opportunity to enjoy. The nose gives you cocoa and coffee. In the mouth there's flavors of chocolate, vanilla, carmel and a big finish of oak and coffee! The flavors are strong and harmonious. The sweetness is gentle. The alcohol does not burn at all but leaves a nice warmth in the mouth. You don't want to waste this Rum with Coke. One of my favorite rums and if you get the opportunity - you wont be disappointed.
