Dictador Episodio 1 Port Cask 2000

Dictador Episodio 1 Port Cask 2000 is a long-aged Colombian rum from Destileria Colombiana, matured with a Port-cask influence. Dictador works in a solera-leaning Spanish style whose signature runs to coffee, cocoa, vanilla and dried fruit.

The Port casks in the house style usually bring red and dark fruit and an extra layer of dark sweetness over the rich base. With a stated twenty years and bottling at 43%, this should read full and layered, built for slow sipping. Added sugar is not disclosed, so the deep, sweet character likely owes to long ageing, the Port finish and Dictador's house profile rather than heavy dosage.
