The Colombian producer of Gin, cigars and coffee is best known for its rum. Dictador was founded in 1913 in Cartagena on the northern coast of Colombia. Great importance is attached to careful production and well-kept recipes, which are continued today by the third generation of the Parra family. This 12-year-old Dictador rum is made from the fermentation of pure sugar cane honey, which is distilled partly in Copper Pot Stills and partly in a Continuous Steel Column Still. The South American rum is matured in ex-bourbon barrels made of American oak and receives a subsequent finish in sherry casks.

Remedy originated during Prohibition in the United States of America. During this time, rum was sold in pharmacies under medical pretexts. Rums from Trinidad & Tobago, Barbados and the Dominican Republic form the basis for the spiced rum spirit. It is refined with an essence of pineapple. This set also includes two 50 ml miniatures of Remedy Elixir, which is made from rum from Panama that has been aged in oak barrels for up to seven years, and a miniature of Remedy Pineapple, which is refined with pineapple essence.

This limited edition matured for between 8 and 30 years using the solera method, resulting in an incomparable Taste of wood and fruit. Originally named after a famous racehorse in 1985, there are now many bottlings from the distillery, which advertises its rum itself as "The Spirit of Costa Rica". Due to the special location between the Caribbean and the Pacific, unique weather conditions develop that have a special influence on the maturation of the rum. The distillery itself attaches great importance to sustainability and the well-being of its employees.

The Appleton Estate Signature Rum is part of the distillery's standard range and is a blend of 15 matured distillates. Like all other Appleton Estate rums, the Signature contains no added flavours.

Appleton Estate was founded in the Nassau Valley in 1749, making it the oldest distillery on the island. The distillery includes sugar cane plantations as well as its own spring and yeast cultivation. The rum is traditionally produced here using the elaborate Pot Still process with ingredients from the estate's own production.

The 1731 Fine & Rare Belize Rum is made from molasses and distilled in column stills. It is then matured for at least 12 years in former American oak bourbon barrels. The tropical climate in Belize ensures a more intensive maturation than is the case, for example, with whisky that matures in the European climes of Scotland. Without chill filtration or the addition of sugar, colouring or other additives, the rum is bottled at 46% vol. The company 1731 Fine & Rare comes from the Netherlands. Decisive for the name of the independent bottler is the year in which the British Royal Navy began to offer its sailors half a pint of rum as part of their wages. The product series of the Dutch are Regional Blends and Single Origin Rums. They include rums from Central and South America.

This 6-year-old rum made from molasses also comes from the Cotopaxi province in the eastern Andes. It was bottled exclusively for a German importer at cask strength after distillation on column stills and maturation in barrels that previously contained Scotch whisky. The design of the bottle labels is reminiscent of the colourful woven patterns often found in ponchos and the traditional clothing of the locals in Ecuador.
