Strong smell of white oak, nicely coupled with coffee. The taste is rather dry, with fruits, white oak (not charred), with strong coffee ending. I can understand this is not everyone's cup of coffee (literally), but I love it. This is a fair priced sipper with a distinctive taste. Reedit 06/2021 - either the Covid confused my tastebuds, or the recipe changed, or I was just writing nonsense in my original review based on what I remembered (had had two bottles quite some time before I wrote it), but the taste I can feel now is sweet, there is definitely some sweetner added, I cannot feel coffee notes anymore, also the oak is almost gone, instead I can feel walnuts and licorice in smell and taste and somewhat harsh alcohol underneath.
Very dark brown color. Nose of burnt brown sugar and rubber, almost chemical. The taste is dry and the alcohol is well integrated. But I didn't like that nose.
The Dictador 12y Solera is a rum made from sugar cane honey. The distillery Colombiana in Cartagena de Indias uses the Pot and Column Still and has the Solera stored in used oak barrels for real 12 years. The term Solera refers here only to the replenishment of the Angel Share. To create a distinct caramel note, the barrels are burned out before storage. In the end, it is bottled with 40% alcohol in the typical Dictador bottle, which in this case is black and not transparent. The rum is unsweetened and without additives.
On the nose I receive Dictador typical aromas of caramel, cocoa, burnt malt and leather. I can't perceive much coffee. On the palate, the rum is strong. Caramel again, smoke, malt, some cocoa and vanilla. So far so good. Unfortunately, however, the leather note is far too concise, pushes itself into the foreground and paints everything over. In the finish comes a clear sharpness and the leather can not really be expelled. After one glass I had no desire to drink it anymore.
After several tastings, I can say that I don't like the rum subjectively. But it is also not very well balanced and I wonder for whom the rum is produced. For 30 euros, it is in the entry-level price segment. However, I advise all beginners not to use the rum. You have to like the Dictador 12y. Otherwise you won't be happy with the rum.
Der Dictador 12y Solera ist ein Rum welcher aus Zuckerrohrhonig hergestellt wird. Die Distelerie Colombiana in Cartagena de Indias benutzt dabei den Pot und Column Still und lässt den Solera in gebrauchten Eichenholzfässern angeblich wirkliche 12 Jahre lagern. Der Begriff Solera bezieht sich hier wohl nur auf das Auffüllen des Angel Shares. Um eine deutliche karamellige Note zu erzeugen werden die Fässer vor der Lagerung ausgbrannt. Am Ende wird er mit 40% Alkohol in die für Dictador typische Flasche abgefüllt, welche in diesem Fall schwarz und nicht transparent ist. Der Rum soll ungesüßt und ohne Zusatzstoffe sein.
In der Nase empfange ich Dictador typische Aromen von Karamel, Kakao, gebrannten Malz und Leder. Kaffee kann ich kaum wahrnehmen. Am Gaumen ist der Rum kräftig. Wieder Karamel, Rauch, Malz, etwas Kakao und Vanille. Soweit so gut. Leider ist aber die Leder Note viel zu prägnant, drängt sich in den Vordergrund und übermalt alles. Im Abgang kommt dann eine deutliche Schärfe und das Leder lässt sich nicht wirklich vertreiben. Nach einem Glas hatte ich hier schon keine Lust mehr.
Nach mehrfachem Probieren kann ich sagen, mir schmeckt der Rum subjektiv einfach nicht. Er ist aber auch nicht besonders gut ausbalanciert und ich frage mich für wen der Rum produziert wird. Für 30 Euro ist er im Einsteiger Preissegment. Ich rate aber allen Einsteigern von dem Rum ab. Den Dictador 12y muss man mögen. Sonst wird man mit dem Rum nicht glücklich.
What a nice drink! The coffee note is very evident at first sip together with maple syrup. The nose is maple syrup dominated. Very different rum with incredible flavour.
tres bonne bouche , odeur, mais un petit gout de noix me gene un peu
Excelente ron, color claro con notas a naranja, toffe, vainilla y Café
I tried many Dictator rums but I think it's not my taste
Z Kolumbie poznám najme kávu no v tomto rume ju tiež cítiť. Rum je nasládly.
Vôna - jemne nasladla po orechoch a káve.
Chuť - jemne štiplavá - vlašské orechy, kakao, káva, drevo
Odporúčam vyskúšať, za tu cenu super obzvlášť ak máte radi orechy.
The first Solera I really like. Had to give this a good score. Really different flavors that work beautifully together. Coffee, walnut and molasses. The nose is potent with spice and some dark plum notes. Complex and balanced. It would be a 9 for me if it had just a fraction more bite. Smooth. Fills your mouth. Coats the pallet. Nice medium length finish. Very tasty. Very enjoyable. Good neat or on ice. Can’t wait to try the 20 year old. Could there be 2 good Solera system runs out there? I am skeptical but this one has it right.
It’s a very intense, pungent smelling rum.
"The taste of the Dictador initially is very much of coffee. It still has a fruity taste but it has a lot more going on that just being sweet. ."

Tento rum mne překvapil již svou vůní. Očekával jsem něco hodně jemného s velkou dávkou ovocné sladkosti. Místo toho jsem cítil pravou vůni rumu, hodně dřeva ze sudů ve kterých byl uchován v době zrání, podobně jako u rumů Mount Gay z Barbadosu. Chuťově jsou si rovněž podobné. takové jemně ostré rumy s delším dozvukem kdy je zvýrazněna chuť dřeva a melasy.
