Don Papa Gayuma
Most enjoy the sweet smoke, chocolate and peat twist, especially in cola. Critics find it artificial, woody, short and not really rum‑like. Consensus: divisive but interesting experiment.
Sweet-toothed whisky crossover drinkers who like gentle peat, chocolate and wood, and want an easy 40% smoky rum for sipping with cola or experimenting in mixed drinks.

To be honest, I don't think this Don Papa is that bad. It really tastes very fruity, but delicious, the woody and smoky flavor goes a bit too far, but still really okay this rum.
You can tell it has spent time in bourbon barrels. Toasted wood, vanilla and fruit dominate - chocolate and menthol in the background. One of the stronger Don Papas with a peaty finish.
Fanta in Islay barrel... Terrible...
Not too bad and this is a smoky rum. Light on the fruit and spices but still OK. Wonder how this one would do in a rum'n'coke 🤔
