Don Papa Rye Aged Rum Limited Edition

Don Papa Rye Aged Rum thus combines all the rich and sweet character of Filipino Rum with the magic and poetry of the American Prohibition era. In the United States of the 1920s, in fact, most of the whiskeys produced were Rye, that is, distillates made predominantly from rye.

After the release of the first bourbons, whiskeys with softer and sweeter hints, Rye experienced a period of decline. A long dark phase from which, however, today this distillate has completely emerged, thanks in part to the proliferation of craft distilleries in the United States. The time combination of American Prohibition and the sugarcane boom in the Philippines was the perfect inspiration for Don Papa Rye Aged Rum.

The distinctive golden color of Don Papa Rye Aged Rum is the result of the union between the green rye fields of the United States and the cool Philippine sea breeze. An extraordinary mix that gives the distillate a unique taste: the sweet notes, characteristic of the raw material, “black gold” molasses, are in fact combined with the spicy, vegetal and intense hints of aging, carried out entirely in barrels that have previously contained American Rye Whisky. The end result is a new velvety and complex Rum: Don Papa Rye Aged Rum.

Don Papa Rye Aged Rum brings back, on the nose, dry and spicy notes that open, on the palate, toward honey and pepper with a very delicate and surprisingly apple-tinged finish. All the scent of the wood that contained Rye Whisky is well discernible and provides a characteristic even slightly savory note.

Rye Aged Rum reaches an alcohol content of 45 percent and is a limited edition Super Premium category.
