Distilled: 1980

This is an unusual, independently bottled Dictador single cask. Distilled in 1980 on a combination of column and pot stills and matured 39 years before bottling in 2019.

The Destilería Colombiana was established in 1913 by Don Julio Arango y Parra and today it is still run by members of his family. The distillery’s flagship brand, Dictador, is named after Severo Arango y Ferro, nicknamed "El Dictador," for the heavy hand with which oversaw trade between Spain and its colonies in the 18th century. Don Julio was one of his descendants. The distillery operates both copper pot stills as well as a stainless steel six-column continuous still, and uses a wash made from sugarcane “honey.” This is the product of the first stage in molasses production, which produces a syrup by boiling off the water from freshly pressed cane juice. This provides a lighter distillate than traditional molasses.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Brown sugar, hard caramel sweets, raisins

Flavour: Very chewy! Fruit and nut chocolate, prunes wrapped in cured meat

Finish: Slight saltiness, brioche the 5 spice comes through
