Don Papa Sherry Cask 2012 1yr - 4yr 45%

“Cherry, sherry, with a bold, intricate profile.”

Don Papa Sherry Cask Rum, crafted in the Philippines by the Bleeding Heart Rum Company, offers a unique tasting experience with its 45% ABV. Distilled in 2012 and aged between one to four years, the rum's profile prominently features cherry and sherry notes, complemented by woody undertones. Users appreciate its bold sherry influence and complex fruitiness, presenting balanced notes of cherry, figs, and spices. The rum's maturation in multiple sherry casks enriches its layers. While some find the taste overwhelming and artificial, others highlight its distinctive aroma and lengthy finish. This rum is noted for its divergence from traditional Don Papa sweetness and features subtle tobacco and clove hints, offering a dry, fruity experience.

“This is a rum which was finished in 5 different casks. First finish is done in American oak bourbon casks and then 18 months in 4 different sherry casks; Fino, Pedro Ximinez, Cream and Palo Cortado. A very nice long velvety finish. ”

“Surprisingly fruity and spicy nose. On the palate, the ingenious sherry influence comes into its own. A relatively woody bouquet with an interesting spiciness (cinnamon, clove) and intensity. Dry and fruity at the same time. The finish is longer than average and leathery/spicy. The special thing about the unsweetened bottlings from Don Papa is their unmistakable aroma, which cannot be compared with rums from other countries. Around 90 euros is quite acceptable for this rum and the taste experience is worth it anyway.”

“8,5:The nose is balanced, round, with molasses, strongly roasted nuts with smokiness, camphor and red fruits, ripe banana. Tangerine brings its bitterness and acidity, making for a rather lively finish. Over time, camphor and wax take on an increasingly medicinal quality. With time, the varnished wood and minty notes come to the fore. It is soft and warm, exhaling aromas of vanilla tobacco and nuts. 8,3:The palate is dry and astringent, as the sherry cask would suggest. Once again, camphor takes a large slice of the aroma cake. The profile is medicinal, resinous, bit spicy and a little roasted. The blend is quite concentrated, with intense vanilla, ripe exotic fruit and resin, followed by a hint of cereal. 8,3:The finish is quite long and juicy, with exotic fruit and cherry pie, confectionery like.I like this rum, no joke!🙂”
