Don Papa: Discover the spirit of Sugarlandia
Don Papa is the original single-island rum from the mystical realm of Sugarlandia in the Philippines, where sugarcane rum thrives amidst lush landscapes and exotic creatures that roam the rainforest.
Matured in the foothills of Mount Kanlaon, Don Papa Rum undergoes a meticulous ageing process in ex-Bourbon and ex-Rioja American Oak casks before being expertly blended by our Master Blender.
This exquisitely crafted, rich and well-rounded rum, boasts a depth and complexity drawn from the deep intensity of ex-Rioja wine casks, making it a truly premium rum.
The Don of the Philippines
But who is Don Papa?
Well, the namesake of Don Papa Rum is inspired by Papa Isio, one of the leading figures of the 19th century Philippine revolution. Initially a foreman at a sugar plantation, his leadership and courage played a critical part in liberating the island of Negros from Spanish rule.
His spirit and sense of magic lives on in every bottle of Don Papa.
