Dictador Cartagena is produced at the Destilería Colombiana in Cartagena, Colombia. Made from sugarcane honey, this rum offers a naturally rich and pronounced sweetness. It is aged in Quercus Humboldtii barrels, a native Colombian white oak that imparts distinctive character and depth of flavor. Bottled at 38% ABV, Dictador Cartagena is crafted for those who appreciate a smooth, balanced, and approachable rum.

At the end of the 18th century, Severo Arango arrived in Granada (present-day Colombia). His main goal for Spain was to improve tax collection in the American-Spanish colonies. Arango's power became so great that he was called DICTADOR. After some time of discovering the rum, Arango immediately falls in love with the drink.  Eventually, Parra managed to become one of the best producers of Colombian rum in the region, dedicating his life to his ancestral heritage. The rum has been produced for 100 years by the company Destileria Colombiana in Cartagena. The recipe for the production of rum is kept strictly secret and passed down from generation to generation.
