Original gift packaging of premium Filipino rum Don Papa and a shaker with the same design decor. Don Papa is a premium 7-year-old Filipino rum produced at the foot of the active volcano Mt. Kanlaon, where the finest sugarcane is milled to create sweet molasses. After harvesting, fermentation, and distillation, it is blended by the Master Blender and subsequently bottled in beautifully designed bottles.
Rum Don Papa has undergone a significant change in the production process by transitioning from the label "Small Batch" to "Single Island."
Originally, as "Small Batch," Don Papa was known for its artisanal approach, produced in limited quantities with rum sourced from various regions of the Philippines.
Under the new label "Single Island," Don Papa now focuses on its roots by ensuring all ingredients come exclusively from one island – Negros, also known as Sugarlandia. This change highlights the unique terroir of the island, particularly its high-quality sugarcane, which plays a key role in shaping the character of the rum. The production process is now more focused on the island's ecosystem, reflecting a stronger connection to the local land and emphasizing Don Papa's commitment to local craftsmanship.
This change represents a commitment to enhance the original story of the rum, while its distinctive flavor profile – known for its sweet, vanilla, and fruity notes – remains preserved, but with a deeper sense of place of origin.
The rum is made using a secret recipe that has been passed down for generations. The rum ages on average 7 years in American oak barrels. We recommend serving it on the rocks or in various mixed drinks and cocktails.
