Product description
Dictador 2 Masters is a series of extremely rare, limited edition Colombian rums.
Each of them was first carefully selected by the Dictador brand's master blender, Hernan Parra, and then traveled to the places where other spirits were made, where they were further "processed" by local masters. This involved selecting the right barrels for further maturation of the rum and giving it an additional aromatic and flavor dimension by combining the highest quality Colombian rum with the characteristics of spirits such as whisky, cognac, Armagnac or exquisite French wines. Each bottle of these limited editions is provided with a special quality certificate - next to the fingerprint of Hernan Parra from Dictador, the label includes the fingerprint of each of the masters responsible for the final stage of preparation of a given spirit.
Dictador 2 Masters Hardy Winter 1974-77 is a Colombian rum aged 45-48 years, initially matured in American oak barrels. The rum was then transported to France, where it was taken over by the cellarer of the Hardy Cognac house. There, it was placed in two French Limousin oak barrels, previously used for maturing local cognac, where it spent 35 months. Bottled in February 2022 in a limited edition of 971 individually numbered bottles.
Aroma : Fresh ginger, stone fruit, a bit of smoke, delicate toffee, hints of strawberries, a bit of grapes.
Palate : Ginger, crushed black pepper, vanilla, then plums, toasted coconut, cherries. Another wave of oak-like spices, then the red fruits come to the fore again.
Finish: Oak vanilla, delicate spices, a bit of cigar smoke, all in a long and lingering finish (producer's note).
