Dictador Colombian Aged Gin Ortodoxy White

Dictador is a Colombian brand known primarily for their rums, but their Ortodoxy White Gin is an interesting addition to the portfolio.

This gin is inspired by traditional recipes and is made from alcohol extracted from sugar cane. Carefully selected botanicals such as juniper, angelica and mint are added during the fifth distillation. The gin is then aged for 35 weeks in rum casks, giving it a unique character.

An aged gin from the makers of Dictador rum. The visual is inspired by the leather wrapper of former company director Dario Parra. The latter, after visiting the UK and enjoying what he called the drink of the gods (Who could argue? Gin is great!) set about making his own Colombian gin. He based it on a delightful recipe rich in juniper and angelica with minty notes.
