Don Papa 7-Year-Old small batch Rum, meticulously crafted from the sun-drenched sugar cane of Negros, Philippines. Don Papa 7-Year-Old Rum is a tropical delight that encapsulates the essence of the island's sugarcane, thriving in the mineral-rich volcanic soils that impart a unique character.
Following fermentation and precise column still distillation, the rum is further refined with locally sourced spring water. The journey continues as the Rum is matured in ex-bourbon and ex-Rioja barrels for seven years, guided by the island's hot and humid climate, which imparts that iconic Don Papa flavour. Only the finest casks are expertly blended, resulting in a luxuriously rich and velvety rum, a true testament to the artistry of nature and the skilled hands that guide its creation.
Beginning with a delightful array of fruity aromas, featuring sweet tangerines and apricots. As you delve deeper, notes of creamy vanilla ice-cream topped with a decadent runny toffee sauce emerge, tantalising the senses. On the palate, indulge in a bounty of flavours, including abundant vanilla and warming cinnamon, accompanied by hints of raisin, sultana, and marmalade, creating a rich and complex taste profile. The journey culminates in a medium-length finish, leaving a punchy impression of cinnamon lingering on the palate.
