About this deal
It was firstly aged in American oak ex-bourbon barrels before being moved over to ex-Port casks to take advantage of all those fabulous red fruit notes. A class action suit has been filed in May 2022 in Illinois alleging that Don Papa should not be labeled "Rum", as the undisclosed use of additives could be misleading consumers. A richly flavoursome rum from the Philippines, inspired by the story of Papa Isio, who played a big part in the late-19th century Philippine revolution. Tanduay might be the oldest and biggest rum producer in the Philippines – walk into any KTV bar (karaoke is as popular here as rum – believe me, I have video evidence) and you’ll inevitably see its yellow label on the shelf – but the fiery caramel liquor is best when tamed by mixers in a cocktail.

The finish eventually sees a bit of astringency (that classic petrol note so common with rum) that the sugar can’t quite cover up, though frankly, given the overwhelming rush of sweetness that comes before, this rustic character is almost a relief. But the difference between these 2 rums stands in the fact that this addition has been reasonably well mastered in Mauritius when it has been completely missed in the Philippines. Na závěr přichází desetiletý rum Don Papa, který je další tři roky stařenou verzí sedmileté vlajkové lodi, Don Papa 7y. The company will be available to discuss the transaction in more detail after the release of Diageo’s fiscal 23 interim results on 26 January 2023. Stephen Carroll will remain involved with the brand, working alongside Diageo to build on Don Papa Rum’s growth potential.
The story goes: when he was a young boy, he saw the loss of his family’s land to the arrival of the Negros sugar barons, and later was involved in an altercation with a Spanish solider, which forced him to flee for his life into the mountains. The overwhelming vanilla note is clearly an additive and likely synthetic, and the product feels heavy in the mouth as well as sweet, suggesting that it’s been sugared post-distillation.
