Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Had a very nice Dictador tasting this Sunday and this is the fifth one of the six. I'm a bit disappointed with this rum because it's supposed to be a 39 year old rum. The fact that they have added artificial coffee to it also disappoints me. The taste is thin at most and sweet. The price tag on this bottle is far too high.
