Product description
The story of Dictador rum commences in 1751, with Severo Arango Ferro arriving at Cartagena de Indias in order to control and develop trade links between Spain and its overseas colony.
Thanks to his knowledge and physical stamina, he soon earned the nickname Dictador. Enchanted by the flavours and elegance of the locally made rum, he became the largest rum producer and exporter. Some 160 years later, one of Dictador’s descendants founded Destileria Columbiana, in time becoming the largest rum producer in the Caribbean. The third generation of the Arango family created the Dictador Europe project, embarking on an international expansion of the brand.
Dictador Aurum is a very special rum, made from unique virgin sugar cane honey, distilled in a traditional copper pot still and then matured in American oak ex-bourbon barrels. Finally, the master blender selects the best barrels from each individual vintage to create this extraordinary composition. Awarded gold medals in rum and spirits competitions in Miami, Orlando and Las Vegas.
