Product info about Dictador Libreto Sherry'98
Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 sits in the more special, contemplative side of Dictador's Colombian rum range. Distilled in 1998 and aged for 24 years, it brings together long maturation, traditional column distillation and a sherry finish in a rum that feels made for slow attention rather than quick sipping.Dictador presents the Libreto and Sinfonia rums as special editions, created to reflect craftsmanship, excellence and the heritage of the brand. At Drankenshop Broekmans, this is the kind of bottle we place in front of someone looking for a rum with a proper backstory: Colombian origin, sugar cane syrup base, 45% alcohol and a mature style shaped by time.
With only the last bottles remaining, its scarcity is now part of the experience. Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is a mature, gently sweet and spice-led rum where the sherry finish adds an extra layer of depth without taking away from the rum's own identity.

Frequently asked questions
What kind of rum is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98?

In Suger Cane Syrup rum, sugarcane syrup is fermented and distilled. The use of sugarcane syrup gives the rum a more concentrated and pure sugarcane flavour.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a no age statement rum (NAS)?
No, Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is not a no age statement (NAS) rum. The label explicitly states an age and that age represents the youngest rum found in the bottle (or in the blend).
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a single cask rum?
No, Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is not a single cask rum.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a rum at cask strength?
No, Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is not rum at cask strength.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 suitable to give as a gift?
Although this Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is not or does not have explicit gift packaging, it can certainly make an excellent gift. Gift packs are usually taken as a safe choice of gift because brands often combine the most accessible or their most popular rum combine with a fun accessory in a nice gift pack. But if you are looking for a gift for an experienced rum-drinker they may not be waiting for yet another glass and then this one Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 might even be a better choice than such a gift pack.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 een goede keuze voor mij?
This Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 can be a rum that suits you if you like a rum with a spicy character. Indeed, this spiciness is quite emphatic in the flavour profile.
However, we recommend that you also check out the rest of the flavour profile, as it is of course only one part of the overall character of this rum.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a spicy rum?
Yes, Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is a rum with a fairly spicy flavour profile: the spiciness of this rum will be discernible right from the first sip from your glass.
The spiciness of a spirit can come about in different ways.
- In whisky, the spicy notes mainly arise during the maturation process in wooden casks. The type of wood used (e.g. American oak, European oak) and whether the casks have been used before (e.g. sherry casks) have a big influence on the spiciness of the whisky that comes out of them.
- With rum, the spicy notes can also come from the barrels used, but in addition there is also a separate class of "Spiced rum" where extra spices are added.
- Gin has a much shorter production cycle and therefore does not usually get its spiciness from wood. Spicy notes in a gin are usually the direct result of the botanicals used to "colour" the gin and give it its own identity.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a fruity rum?
On its own, yes, but Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is a rum with only a slightly fruity flavour profile: the fruitiness of this rum is hidden in the flavour profile, balanced with the other parts of the profile.
- Whiskies with a fruity character can range from light and fresh apple notes to deep, ripe stone fruit and exotic aromas. This fruitiness can come from the grains, yeast and fermentation used, the shape of the pot stills and the cask type.
- Rum made from sugar cane or molasses lends itself ideally to fruity notes. From the fresh citrus aromas of a white rum to the deep pineapple and banana notes of an aged variety - fruitiness is an essential characteristic in many rums. Again, the same factors affect fruitiness as with whisky.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a sweet rum?
By itself, yes, but the sweetness in this Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 rum is only slightly present in the flavour profile.
Sweet rum is usually the most accessible version. Because that pronounced sweetness is missing here, it may be a rum that does not strike a mainstream chord with everyone.
Do you drink Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 pure or with ice?
Whether you drink this Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 rum best with or without ice is a personal choice. We have always chosen not to take a stance on adding water or ice to rum. There are certainly good reasons to add a little water to your rum, but whether it adds value to you or detracts from your enjoyment is something you should mainly discover for yourself.
Does Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 have a high alcohol content?
The alcohol content of this Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is higher than what you would expect from an average rum expect. While not extremely exceptional, a rum of around 46% is somewhat rarer anyway. Most rum is usually closer to 40%.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 an independent bottling?
No, Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is an official bottling of Dictador.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a solera rum?
No, Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is not produced according to the solera system.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 suitable for making a Dark 'n Stormy cocktail?
The "Dark 'n Stormy" cocktail is a protected trademark of Gosling Brothers Ltd. According to official rules, a cocktail may therefore only be called Dark 'N Stormy (with one apostrophe) if it is made with Gosling's Rum and ginger beer.
Since Gosling only registered the name with single apostrophe, the same cocktail is also described elsewhere as a Dark 'n' Stormy (with double apostrophe) or as a Safe Harbor in an attempt to get out from under the trademark and licensing problems.
If you don't mind the official designation and want to make a cocktail based on the recipe of the official Dark 'n Stormy, this Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 is definitely a good choice. To make an official, correct Dark 'n Stormy, however, you need Gosling's Black Seal rum.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 vegan?
According to the data currently available to us, we cannot state with certainty that this product is vegan and this claim is not explicitly made by the brand.
Is Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 a biological rum?
Based on the information available to us, we can conclude that this Dictador Libreto Sherry'98 rum from Dictador is not an organic product.
