About Dictador Perpetual
Dictador XO Perpetual is a premium Colombian rum produced by Sazerac Company Inc., with 40% ABV and available in 750ml bottles at $71.22. Crafted from virgin sugarcane honey using a blend of pot and continuous still distillation, it undergoes a unique Solera aging process in high-end ex-Bourbon and oak barrels, creating a complex, smooth profile distinct from typical rums. What makes it special is its hypnotic aroma of roasted honey, Colombian coffee, dark chocolate, and caramel, paired with a velvety mouthfeel and endless finish, evoking luxury and refinement. Ideal for rum connoisseurs and sipping enthusiasts seeking an indulgent, dessert-like experience without harshness. In its category of aged premium rums, it stands out for its bold yet balanced Spanish-style notes—caramel, vanilla, tobacco, and nuts—offering superior smoothness compared to lighter Caribbean rums, though some note subtle spiciness or added sugar debates. At this price, it delivers exceptional value for perpetual sophistication.
