Based in Cartagena (Colombia), Dictador is a long-established rum producer that started in 1913 as Destilería Colombiana. It was founded by a descendant of Severo Arango y Ferro -- nicknamed 'El Dictador' -- a Spanish official who took to liking rums when he visited the coastal town of Cartagena during the 1700s.
What sets Dictador's rums apart is the use of fermented sugar cane honey (sugar cane juice that has been partially evaporated) as a base ingredient, as opposed to the more commonly used molasses (which is a by-product of refining sugarcane or sugar beets into sugar). Also, Dictador’s rums have no added sugar, which means that the sweetness of the rums are purely from the rum-making process.
By the time we hit publish, this limited quantity expression may have already been sold out in Malaysia. That's because Diageo only made 1,689 bottles of this 38 year old available worldwide with only 10% of this quantity (168, just in case...) made available in Malaysia.
Four Pillars Gin is a craft distillery founded by three friends in 2013 based in Healesville, Melbourne’s Yarra Valley. Four Pillars took Australia and the world by storm when the first ever gin they developed - the Rare Dry Gin - won awards just one year after the distillery was founded, making the distillery a fast cult favourite and one of the most beloved gin brands in Australia.
Glenfiddich's Lunar celebration packaging is sure to bring you some festive cheer.
Designed by the up-and-coming Chinese illustrator Rlon Wang, it tells a story of ‘The Great Homecoming’, inspired by the feeling of "balik kampung", ie - returning home to family for the festivities. The story follows on from 2020’s edition, where artist Wang first reimagined the royal stag icon and the journey of Charles Gordon (son-in-law of Glenfiddich founder William Grant) where he embarked for Asia with a few cases of whisky and a dream to bring the Speyside Scotch whisky to the world. The 2021 special edition bottle honours his return home to Scotland a year later.
The gift pack comes with a full bottle of whisky and 2 branded rock glasses as is available for the 12, 15, 18 and 21 expressions.
