Dictador Seductivo 24Y 0,7l 44,2% GB

Dictador Seductivo 24Y - born from a Styrian vision, created in Cartagena, Colombia. The search for the "perfect rum" gave Mario Reisenhofer, Weizer the idea for a unique project with Colombian rum producer Dictador.

It was necessary to send a few samples from Colombia to Styria to find a truly perfect rum. When it could finally live up to its name (SEDUCTIVO = seductive, charming), Mario Reisenhofer also developed the bottle and packaging design. The result was packaging in black and silver as a visual expression of the noble contents.

Dictador Seductivo 24Y is also an exceptional tasting rum from Dictador. Silky and strikingly sweet, but still with all the familiar qualities of a typical Dictador rum: subtle chocolate notes and aromatic tobacco flavours, but also notes of caramel and dried fruit added during the long maturation in sherry casks. The aroma also includes exotic spices, citrus notes and a subtle almond/hazelnut scent.

Dictador Seductivo 24Y was distilled in Cartagena in 1994. 70% in column distillation, 30% in Alambic Pot Stills. Ten of the most prized casks from the Dictador warehouse were personally selected by Hernan Parra for this limited special bottling and masterfully put together. As always with Dictador, there was of course no subsequent sugaring. Incidentally, only sherry casks were used for bottling, in which Dictador Seductivo 24Y was left to mature for a full 6 years. Previously, the same rum spent 18 years in former bourbon barrels. Like many barrel aged bottlings, SEDUCTIVO is not a solera rum, but has an actual barrel age of 24 years!
