    How does this rum taste?

    Papa’s Pilar Blonde Rum is a versatile spirit distilled from molasses using a column still in the USA and bottled by Hemingway Rum. Aged for less than three years, this rum offers a pleasant aromatic profile with prominent vanilla, floral, and caramel notes on the nose. While the taste unfolds with hints of dried fruit, milk chocolate, and a subtle spice finish. Ideal as a cocktail base or for casual sipping, it is appreciated for its smoothness and balance but noted for its overly sweet and artificial undertones by some users. Its distinctive bottle and approachable flavor make it a popular choice for those new to rum or those seeking a mellow alternative to more complex spirits.

    Liquid toffee/caramel candy. Relatively alcoholic and simply very artificial and sweet. Rather disappointing. Too bad!

    Still love this white rum. Just a great taste.

    This rum came up clearing out old bottles from the cabinet. It bores me indeed and I can’t recommend it. Just waiting for a new much nicer bottle to take up that space in the cabinet.

    I use this rum for my Danish rum summer cake with strawberries. A great mix.
