Dictador 12 Year Old Colombian Rum Icon Reserve (Gift Boxed)

One of the world's most awarded rums, the Dictador 12 Year Old Icon Reserve, is a Solera system aged rum made from the fermentation of virgin sugar cane distilled partly in a copper alembic and partly in a steel continuous column, to achieve a signature medium bodied rum. It is aged using Dicatador’s unique take on the solera-style ageing system. This is a cascading process where younger rums are aged in oak casks and then blended with older rums. The aged rums are arranged in different flights with the oldest distilled rum on the lowest levels of the Solera. The younger rums are placed on the upper levels with the very youngest rums at the top. As the rum is pulled from the lowest barrels for bottling, the barrels are not fully emptied, and those barrels (about half full) are then topped up with rum from the levels just above. This marrying of old and new softens the fiery younger rum and provides the final blended rum with a refined smoothness and flavour not found in ordinary rums. The rum is rich amber in colour, with reddish tones. Complex and aromatic, it is intense with soft caramel, honey, dry seeds and lightly roasted coffee, which gives way to medium oak aromas. On the palate, the rum is soft and round with caramel, cocoa and honey light coffee flavours. The finish has a light oakiness

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
