Smooth and sweet good tasting dark rum. Couldn't taste as much of the age as I would like.

Bien loin du goût trafiqué du Don Papa. Prix tout de même élevé par rapport à des rhums de qualité équivalente

Rich, dark, fairly smooth. Sweet and fragrant with orange peel. Perhaps the true purists will wonder what 10 years did to it.

N- So the Don on the label got older, but the lizard on the head still remain young. Prelude with good ashy notes, darker with cocoa, as well rustier and mineral, bitter sweet, spent match stick and whiff of phenol from the wood. (18/25)
P- Sweet menthol, toothpaste, dust of pepper and herbs. More muscle with higher abv, dark coco and vanilla. The citrus from the 7YO is missing here, hence heavier and syrupy. (16/25)
F- Short-medium, boiled spices with more dryness offering a better mouth feel and make it for a better sip, though still sugary sweet and creamy. (17/25)
Balanced:- Surely not a serious and complex sipping rum, but not bad for a casual sips, would be nice with ice, by the pool, under the sun. Like the cocoa. (18/25)
Weighted Rate:- 69pt

Tastes of orange, vanilla and burnt wood but a lot of sugar.
Nice to drink, better than Don Papa 7 years.

DON PAPA 10 ans, un rhum 100% Phillippines
Cette édition est rhum d'assemblage, issu de la fermentation d’une mélasse très riche en sucre, est distillé dans des alambics à colonnes. Il est ensuite élevé pendant 10 longues années sur l’île de Negros, au pied du volcan Kanlaon, dans des anciens fûts de chêne américain ayant contenu du bourbon. Ces fûts ont été "re-toastés", c'est à dire légèrement brûlés à l'intérieur, afin d'apporter des notes de chênes et de vanille aux arômes gourmands et fruités du rhum. En raison du climat, la part des anges aux Philippines est très importante et la distillerie a une volonté de ne pas re-remplir les fûts avec du jeune rhum. Cela donne un rhum plus concentré en arômes, tout en intensité, avec une robe sombre, presque noire.
Une Edition Limitée
Ce rhum des Philippines est produit en édition limitée. Seulement quelques bouteilles de ce rhum seront disponibles pour le marché français. Pour cette expression, le maître distillateur a sélectionné le meilleur, rien que le meilleur...
NOTES DE DÉGUSTATION
Couleur : Ambre foncée à reflets sombres.
Nez : Profond et riche avec une impression de puissance. Marqué par des notes d'agrumes et de vanille.
Bouche : Gourmande et complexe, avec des notes marquées de cacao, d'agrumes et de fruits secs.
Finale : Longue et riche sur les fruits secs et les agrumes, relevés d'une pointe de cacao. Délicieux.

Det bedste ved denne Rom er flasken. Den er vildt cool.
Duften er sød og frugtig.
Smagen starter sødt, men bliver en smule besk.
a really fruity taste and different from all i tasted before, so if you sometimes like something real different here is one
The nose is very familiar – huge wafts of raspberry flavoured bubblegum.
"It tastes like a reduced sugar Marmalade. Full of that slightly bitter artificial sweetener like taste."

This is not that much of an improvement on the normal Don Papa. If anything it seems they've just added some darker sugar and black food colouring. Again, the marketing is excellent and if you like the bottle design, go for it. Just don't expect anything other than a sugar syrup.
