Dictador Solera Distillery Icon Reserve 20-Year

Mi primera experiencia fue en Cartagena. Me impactó. Delicioso. Un resumen de mi Colombia:ron y café

I had a 12 and 20 years old small bottles of Dictador rum. Surprisingly the 12 years old version was better for me, even if I not consider the price, the 20 years old is not my choice.

Simplemente este Ron no me gusto. No es rico, se toma, pero le falta mucho para querer repetirlo. La presentación y botella son un 10, capaz q eso nos hace esperar mas de lo q realmente es.

Suave en nariz, toffee en boca, buena persistencia, un ron diferente pero bastante agradable.

Rum z medu z cukrové třtiny zrál metodou solera v dubových sudech po bourbonu a také v sudech po portském.

Aroma: Káva, tabákový kouř, mléčná čokoláda, stopa sušeného ovoce a snad i vanilky.
Chuť: Jemná, opět káva s hořkou čokoládou.
Dozvuk: Stopa kávy, opálené dřevo, sušené ovoce (rozinky).
Sladkost: 0/3
Celá lahev
Jeden z rumů, se kterým jsem začínal a i po letech je to stále nenáročné, pohodové pití.

Great stuff. Coffe and toasted oak notes followed by gentle vanilla and caramel.

The honey and spices really came thru. It is definitely on the sweeter end of the spectrum, which is probably why I like it so much.

I crossed my path with Dictador at some bar, the taste definitely got my attention, so I've decided to buy a bottle and don't go for a low-aged ones.

20-Year was truly a perfect choice. Aroma is insane - intense, but delicate, a bit of coffee and caramel. The body is rather strong, but with a smooth and long-lasting finish, also caramel here.

A truly great choice, I guess more for pure-rum sipping, but I imagine it would fit perfect with some drinks.

Nice bottle and good reputation. However, this rum did not meet my expectations. Quite weak nose, palate dominated by licorice/anise. I definitely expected more.

Nice color and aroma. Complex flavor and long finishing. It reminds me of Goslings Family Reserve Old Rum.
