The rum is crap the marketing is impeccable. Don't waste your money unless you're looking to add the bottle design to your collection. This thing is seriously sweet.

Quite a nice flavour for the price, albeit a little on the sweet side

Nagyon vanilliás és édes rum, nem ajánlanám senkinek.

Too much sugar and artificial stuff in this. Perhaps it´ll work in a drink mix.

Someone got me this for my birthday. Not knowing the brand I was blown away by the packaging and artwork. Upon opening the bottle you realise something strange is going on. Doesn't smell or taste like any other rum I have ever tried and that's not a compliment. Nearly-full bottle hangs around in the drinks cabinet because of it's artwork.

Tried it both neat and on the rocks. First sip got me positively surprised, I definitely enjoyed it - however before the glass in front of me was empty, I was already sure I will not be able to swallow another one. Its sweetness becomes overwhelming and it does not taste like aged rum at all. To summarize this spirit: if you fancy a single, pleasant drink on the rocks to end a long day - Don Papa Small Batch may meet your requirements, if sweetness is your thing. On the other hand, if you'd like to feel the taste of rum on your tongue, choose something else from the cabinet.
-----------------------------------
Update: Rating drops from 5/10 to 3/10 - some time passed and I cannot push myself to sip it again solo. I tried mixing Don Papa into daiquiri and it was a mistake I don't want to repeat in the future.

This is at best something to make cocktails out of. Undrinkable as a sipping rum. Very close to toothpaste in smell and taste.

Smells like maple syrup with some citrus. Tastes like IronBru. Really sweet and interesting flavour. If you just enjoy it for what it is instead of being a pretentious twat, then it is excellent.

De derde deze avond en het meest zoete van deze avond

By far the worst Spirit that I have ever tried. I am glad that I purchased a small tasting bottle and didn't waste money on a big one. This stuff is not drinkable. It is overly sweet and has a very strong taste of artificial vanilla. There is more vanilla in this then in Vanilla Coke. This is not rum!

Velice chutný, sladký rum. Takový co chutná asi každému.
