Don Papa Small Batch Rum is produced by the Bleeding Heart Rum Company on the southern island of Negros in the Philippines. The rum is distilled from molasses, then aged for over 7 years in American oak barrels, and lastly charcoal filtered.
The name Don Papa rum was inspired by Papa Isio, a leader of the Philippine revolution against the Spanish who led his island to independence before joining the main revolutionary movement.

I love sweetness and vanilla flavours so this is perfect for me. Perhabs not the best rum quality wise but taste wise it's a keeper.
Light. Much flavors like vanilla. Don't mattor if it's artificiall it taste good anyway.
I will be honest with you. This isnt really anything speacial. This rum is pretty artificial and for money it usually costs you can get much better one. But, if you want to support Mr. Dutertes economy, go for it. It is not that bad when you drink it on rocks.
It is popular rum, and I don't get it why, maybe becouse it is "so easy" to sip, its like syrop. Label is beautiful, but for me it is the only positive. Rest what I can say its too sweet, I think so sweet that is blocking taste receptors. I like sweet rums, but with some depth like Diplomatico, that one annihilates Don Papa in every way possible..
.Final verdict: I will not buy it again
This is how a rum should taste in my eyes, first the taste of the alcohol then the fruity and vanilla accents
Doesnt matter what it is, its great! I drink a lot of rums and this one is anytime joy with complex taste.
Vyrazna chut kandizovaneho ovocia, svetlejsia farba, vonia za ovocim. Manzelka si na nom velmi pochutila. Ja mam rad tmavsie a korenistejsie rumy. Tento mi pripada ovocna malinovka :-)
aj ked niektori tvrdia ze toto nie je rum, pre mna to rum je. s velmi zaujimavou kombinaciou vone, chuti a zaveru. rum je ovocny, sladky s vanilkou a karamelom. toto vsetko tam citit je. ak patrite medzi zacinajucich fanusikov rumov, a chcete skusit nieco sladsie okolo 30€, urcite skuste don papu, sedem rocny rum z filipin.
It is a special taste. Very fruity and vanilla. Not a typical Rum taste but very interesting.
Maybe this one might be a good way for people to dicover rum as a first pick, but honestly for me it's only sugar with additives and colourants agent. Spend less money on marketing and (beautiful) packaging and make your rum actually good.
