Don Papa, a lesser-known hero of the Philippine Revolution, was originally a foreman on a sugar cane plantation on the island of Negros. He later became a leader in the struggle for Philippine independence against the colonial powers.

The Don Papa rum, named after him, honours the heroes of the revolution and their determination in the pursuit of freedom and independence.

Don Papa Single Island Rum 7 Years Old is a rum that matures in ex-bourbon and ex-Rioja oak casks before being perfected by the experienced master blender. It has been produced using a new recipe in which the sugar content has been reduced. This means it is less sweet than before, allowing the natural flavours and nuances to come through more clearly. The decision to reduce the sugar content makes this Don Papa particularly appealing to those seeking a rum that is less sweet and offers a more intense tasting experience.

It is a variation within the Don Papa product range that underlines the company’s versatility and ability to cater to different tastes.
