The Dictador BEST OF 1980 EXTREMO Colombian Rum 37YO/200617/EX-B098 is an exceptional 37-year-old rum rarity from Colombia, with an alcohol content of 45 per cent, bottled in a 0.7-litre bottle. This bottling forms part of the exclusive Dictador Best of Collection, for which particularly old and carefully selected reserves from the company’s stocks have been chosen. The focus is on the 1980 vintage, which makes this edition particularly appealing to collectors and connoisseurs of historic vintage bottlings. The detailed labelling 37YO/200617/EX-B098 clearly distinguishes this variant within the Best of series and emphasises the bottling’s unique character.


Within the Dictador Best of Collection, the designation ‘EXTREMO’ stands for a particularly exclusive selection of aged Colombian rum reserves. With a stated age of 37 years, this Dictador ranks amongst the house’s exceptionally long-aged bottlings. Decades of cask ageing have imbued the rum with pronounced maturity and a complex woody profile, whilst the bottling strength of 45% ABV maintains a robust character. It is precisely the combination of the 1980 vintage, the 37-year age statement and the specific reference EX-B098 that lends this Dictador Colombian rum its distinctive rarity and collector’s appeal. As such, this bottling is aimed particularly at connoisseurs seeking old vintage rums and rare editions from Colombia.
