Don Papa Rum

After a long time, once again took a wrong turn. The Don Papa is like an artificial medicine enriched with vanilla, caramel and orange flavors. While the nose is already irritating (high-proof Fanta), then comes the blackout in the mouth. Totally artificially medicinal, like a medicine you had to take as a child, but tasted awful, very sour. The three flavors pull themselves one-dimensionally from front to back. A rum this is not (more).

Don Papa is not a good rum, one could even say it is dubious... But it has succeeded in doing what few rums have managed to do: arouse an interest in a world that many of us were unaware of until now and create a new passion. It is this new audience that allows distilleries to survive. In this sense, Don Papa rums are more valuable than the most expensive rums.

I don't tolerate it. I never liked it, even when I got into early rums with Diplomatico, Kraken and Pampero.

На мой взгляд, этот ром обладает весьма необычным вкусом. Его основные ноты — апельсин и ваниль. Также в составе можно найти крем-соду, что делает вкус ещё более насыщенным. Я настоятельно рекомендую попробовать этот ром.

yeah, this is bad. I don't understand how anyone can like this, rum-newbie or not. the tastes is just so artificial and strong, you just want to rinse your mouth of it. not enjoyable with coke either, wich almost every other rum is.

Sehr köstlich, toller Geschmack, sehr zu empfehlen!

flavors of vanilla, honey and candied fruit - like a liqueur

Tastes sweet but a light sweetness not thick honey sweet.

Very sweet, very artificial. From the category "chemical cocktail in a glass" - hardly recognizable as rum.

Soft vanilla dominant. Long finish

Extremely sweet and aromatic, very artificial

Very sweet and soft. Just the way i like it

The nose is full of orange and vanilla to an extent that it seems artificially flavoured. Some sweet spices linger in the background. The palette follows on from the nose quite well. It's extremely sweet. Some oak in the background makes me think the age statement of 7 years is true. The finish is rather short. A little perfumed but mainly sweet. It's hard to get away from that sugar. Overall, it is for somebody, but for me this is way too sweet and feel synthetic.

On The Rocks: On the nose a very pleasant Vanilla and Butterscotch/Caramel Aroma with a very feint orange peel (almost like an orange pop float). Taste reveals a very nice Vanilla and Caramel Flavour with a mild/moderate orange peel undertone. Finish is medium length with the sweetness fading into a slightly bitter taste with the orange peel continuing to hide in the background. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose a mild Sweet Aroma with a hint of orange and vanilla. Taste reveals a Really good Sweet Vanilla flavour and orange mixture. Finish is short with the vanilla orange fading away. This is an Excellent Mixer.

An imposition. This stuff should not be called rum. I can not understand how this can taste someone.
