Review by Tim
The bourbon barrel has left a great rum here that stands out from other Dictador bottlings. Many spices meet fruit and cream toffee, complemented by something toasty. In the mouth the spices dominate, again it could have been a few % more. Apple and honey rejoin the spices on the finish, plus a nice raspberry note. Price is OK for this rum.
Review by Joachim Guger
Karamell, Leder, Tabak. Warm und vollmundig. Alkohol gut integriert, sehr ausgewogen, nicht besonders komplex. Im Mund dann etwas dünner und eine Spur künstlich. Süffig und gefällig, sicherlich toll zur Zigarre.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Ein sehr angenehmer Alltagsrum der nicht überfordert. Toffee, Caramel, etwas Holz und angenehm ölig. Der Alkohol ist super eingebunden. Preis Leistung finde ich den wirklich in Ordnung. Ich glaube mittlerweile aber auch nicht mehr so einfach zu bekommen.
Review by SaibotZtar
Tatsächlich ein Dictador der besseren Sorte(für mich) Sehr würzig, Alkohol kaum zu spüren...
Review by Jakob
Thanks to the slightly increased alcohol content a little more exciting than the standard bottlings, without really being able to inspire. The aromatic spectrum remains narrowly limited to typical notes of the Spanish style, without setting a particular highlight. Can not really inspire me, unfortunately.
Review by Rado Vito
Nothing special, more fruity notes. Alcohol well integrated, but i don’t get the rating. It wasn’t so good to rate it even more than 7.
