Hemingway Rum Papa‘s Pilar Dark Rum

The taste burns a little on the tongue at first. It's sweet, but not as sweet as the scent. You can taste caramel, cinnamon, dark sugar, vanilla, licorice and a little oak. Medium aftertaste. A good relaxed rum, especially for lovers of sweeter rums. It’s quite smooth and good for casual sipping.

Again, quite thin, alcoholic and quickly gone. Toffifee with a little raisin and banana.... Unimportant, unfortunately.

Nachtrag: heute in der Friendsgivingrunde auf den Tisvj H gestellt: einhellige Meinung: geiler Rum und perfekter Bourbon Abgang. Never drunk before! Ich bin absoluter Rumliebhaber. Aber als Bourbon Fan eine tolle Hommage an Hemmingway als Rum. Mein absoluter Favorit aktuell!

Tasted this one at a rum cruise at the Baltic Sea. Nice bottle and story around it. It’s quite sweet, but the 43% ABV makes it balanced. The representative told me it was a blend consisting of rum aged between 4 and 25yo.

I guess i just got a sweet tooth.it all comes to personal taste.not sure since im new to this but is there a standard to what a great rum should taste like?anyway i loved the variety of tastes i got from this guy and i honestly enjoyed it.i get some people dont like the sweet in some things but i really liked it

Day trip Baltrum September 2024. Sturm-Eck pub. Good rum selection for an average pub ;-) This one is too sweet for me. Nose consists of caramel, chocolate and coffee. Then chocolate, vanilla and spices on the palate. Average.

This is really good. Slightly sweet. Great sipper.

The last rum on Baltrum for today. The Papas Pilar from the United States. Already very sweet on the nose and this is also reflected in the taste. Nevertheless, all in all, it is good to drink

This has become one of my go to and absolute favorites.

Bought directly on Key West. There on vacation he tastes better with Bob of course, but a tasty rum without edges. Quite short finish, unfortunately.

Better than expected. Not over sweetened and with some nice mix of caramel and spices.

Smells like brown sugar and vanilla. Lighter not overly boosy. Tastes brown sugar vanilla and earth. No spice. Sweet on front end& light/butter. Caramel on back end.

Raisin, vanilla, orange

Un unexpected gift from my university teacher. I really do like the shape of this bottle and the story of Pilar boat is very interesting. Aroma itself is very sweet, almost christmasy (chocolate, sugar and caramel with lot of spice). I noticed very intensive orange, cinamon and some herbs. Taste is very simillar to aroma. Sweet, lot of cinamon, orange and chocolate. I noticed lot of spice, but unfortunately the whole experience is ruined by the unpleasant alcoholic taste. Finish is short and it feels like you just ate the whole box of chocolate pralines (not bad thing at all). For me this rum will be good as part of some christmasy drink or as an ingredient of some sweets.

For me, nicer packaging than the inside of the bottle. A little sharper finish. Otherwise, for the price, it's certainly not a bad rum.
