Don Papa Single Island Rum
Don Papa Single Island Rum is crafted on the island of Negros in the Philippines, where the rich volcanic soil produces exceptionally sweet, high‑quality sugarcane. Distilled from molasses and aged in American oak, it’s known for its smooth, rounded character and dessert‑like flavour profile that appeals to both rum newcomers and seasoned drinkers. On the nose, it offers generous aromas of vanilla, caramel and candied citrus, with a touch of tropical fruit. The palate is soft and indulgent, opening with notes of toffee, honey and warm spice before developing hints of dried fruit and cocoa. A gentle sweetness carries through to the finish, leaving lingering flavours of vanilla and lightly toasted oak. A crowd‑pleasing, easy‑drinking rum with a distinctive island style, perfect for sipping neat, mixing into rich cocktails or pairing with desserts.
Ron Abuelo 12 Year Old Gran Reserva
The Ron Abuelo 12 is mature and dense. With aromas of ripe, dark fruit like prunes and an almost chamois leather. The palate is pretty much the same as the aromas but comes to a rum soaked raisin Christmas cake like profile with black cherry jam on the finish. This rum has been static aged in ex-Bourbon barrels.
