Papas Pilar Marquesas Blend

I saw this one and just had to have it. I love the Papas Pilar dark rums and the various special editions are simply fantastic. This one is my favorite yet. All that wonderful Papas Pilar taste, with just a bit more refinement. This one is a solid 9 EDIT: I upped the rating to 10, it's fantastic stuff and as good as anything else 10 rated. I'm savoring the bottle as it's no longer in stock locally. I'm not at all sure I can tell it's been finished in whiskey casks, I don't notice a whiskey taste to it what so ever. However, it is just more smooth than other Papas Pilar darks, and that makes it an absolute winner. The taste just lingers and there is no bad aftertaste. Delightful !!!

This is a fantastic choice for sipping. It’s slightly on the strong side (88 proof), but a little ice will bring out some very nice maple syrup flavors. I still have a lot of bottles in my wish list, but so far for me this beats anything under $100.

My favorite rum that I can afford. I never would use it as a mixer.

This is one of my favorite rums. For the money, it may even be my top rated rum. Very smooth and easy to drink neat or with a cube.

This is a wonderful Rum. Almost a butterscotchy flavor on the pallet and great ending of vanilla, caramel/butterscotch. Another great Rum from Papas Pillar.. one of my favorites especially now I know it’s limited edition and found a couple bottles close by..

A great drinking experience of vanilla & honey. Sweet but not too sweet gives it a balance unlike any other.

What a smooth rum for being aged in whiskey barrels. Full of flavor, very little whiskey; just enough to let you know where it came from . Great from the freezer., and with an easy cigar.

Love how the taste is Sweet butter brown sugar. I’ve read that it has a Maple Syrup flavor or taste; I get none of that. I first had this in Florida where it quickly became my favorite. I can’t keep a bottle in the house because my mother in law and sister in law drink it all!

Nice vanilla start, just a hint of oak, overall well balanced. This rum tastes more like rum than some of the other blends I have had.

Flavor profile expands into a burnt sugar-creme brûlée finish. Smooth. Tops my
List.
