Full aroma and body. When I smell it, I wouldn’t guess the dictador. Body has hints of port and forest fruit. Aftertaste is long, dry and sweet. I am surprised.

#6556 28.03.2026 Running through a few Dictador samples so that I can get that box out of the way. Tonight it is time for yet another online tasting with the guys. Also a pretty average release but this one is strong in the caramel notes. The nose is sweet and has caramel, nutmeg, light sherry, berries and dried fruit. The palate is oily and very sweet with light roasted wood, caramel, dried fruit and light nutts. The finish is medium long, sweet and oily with caramel, orange and light dried fruit.

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 15,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.
