Distinct coffee, walnut and caramel lead a smooth, roasted sip with vanilla and a touch of chocolate. Highly approachable and good value, though several reviewers find it very sweet.

    Had a very nice Dictador tasting this Sunday and this is the first one of the six. Despite this one being a young rum from the destillery it still manages to be very complex with a very nice nose and palate. The vanilla is perfectly matched with the rest and the finish is long and has a bit of smoke to it. All in all a very good price tag for this bottle. This bottle won gold at the International Rum Expert Panel 2010.

    A walnut dipped in coffee!

    Mhh I like this because it's very unique. It has a spicy nose and pallet that most people seem to identify as coffee, but for me its Maggi, which is a food spice concentrate. Sounds weird but it's great with a nice natural honey-like sweetness.

    Vyloženě čuchací rum. Výborné kombo vanilky, sudu, sušeného ovoce a ořechů. Chuť je pro mě bohužel zabitá přemírou doslazení. Chutná to jak levné české rumy, kde cukr přebije úplně všechno. Ideální řešení: nalít, očichat a hodit zpět do láhve 😀
