Dictador has been producing quality aged rum since 1913. The third-generation rum producer is based in Cartagena, on the northern coast of Colombia, which is famed for its high-quality sugarcane.
About Dictador
The distillery was founded by Don Julio Arrango y Parra, a direct descendant of Severo Arango y Ferro after whom the brand is named. In the 18th century, Ferro earned the nickname Dictador (literally translating as “dictator”) for his forceful nature while improving tax collection in Colombia (or Cartagena de Indias in Nueva Granada, as it was then known).
