Hi there, I recently learned that Dictador "best of" series features more than 1 single cask from a given year. In RR the rewiewers rated the rum as if it was one product - in fact these can be entirely different rums (I think they are pretty similar though). As most of the rewiews don't include the image of the bottle I think we will never be able to distinguish the existing ratings. I have no idea how to solve this issue but I'm just letting you know.

It's incredible how complex some of these rums can be with their single casks and limited editions. My typical approach is to make them 'easy' for the average rater to find and rate a rum - and unfortunately, sometimes that means it's not 100% 'accurate'. In this and other similar cases, if the year distilled and years aged is the same, then broadly they'd be categorized as the same rum on RR.

True, I've also found some kill devil editions with almost identical labels. The only difference was the number of bottles from a particular cask. It's entirely indistinguishable for broader community. Thanks for commenting on this.
