In a time when many products shout loudly, Old Dragon focuses on substance. On what remains after the label has been read, the first sip taken – and the last impression is far from forgotten.
But what exactly makes this rum so special? Why does it linger? Why does it not just taste good – but also touch you?
Here’s a look behind the scenes – where character is born from idea and craftsmanship.
1. Two Countries of Origin – a Harmonious Interplay
Old Dragon is not a product of chance. The basis is a careful composition of long-aged rums from Venezuela and Jamaica – two countries with completely different rum DNA:
-
Venezuela stands for soft, balanced rums with a light sweetness and elegant structure.
-
Jamaica brings depth, character, spice – those intense, slightly funky notes that connoisseurs love so much.
The interplay of these two worlds brings out the best of both sides: strength and gentleness, depth and drinking pleasure. Not a compromise – but a conscious balance.
2. Two Distillation Methods – one Signature
Old Dragon uses both pot still and column still processes – a rare mix that combines refinement with complexity:
-
Pot still delivers heavy, intense aromas – lots of body, lots of character.
-
Column still brings lightness, clarity, structure.
This combination creates a unique mouthfeel: smooth on the approach, surprisingly complex in the finish. Perfectly balanced – ideal for pure enjoyment as well.
3. A Taste with Recognition Value: Banana, but Different
The subtle, natural banana note is Old Dragon’s trademark. It’s not artificial, not blatant – but warm, round, and embedded in the overall profile. Many customers report: “I’m not really a rum drinker – but THIS one works!”
That was exactly the goal. Not mainstream. But a rum that appeals to the curious – and doesn’t bore connoisseurs.
4. Created by an Artist – not by Industry
What really makes Old Dragon special is the soul behind it.
Not a big brand. No sterile marketing campaign. But a person. An artist.
I – Dimi – didn’t develop this rum to stand on supermarket shelves. But to convey an idea, a story, a feeling. Just like a tattoo: Personal. Lasting. Expressive.
Old Dragon is not just a rum – it’s an experience. In every sip lies origin, craftsmanship, and attitude. Anyone who has tried it once knows: This is not a drink. This is a statement.
