    How does this rum taste?

    Don Papa Rye Cask Rum is a unique offering from the Bleeding Heart Rum Company in the Philippines. Crafted from molasses and distilled using a column still, this limited release of 899 bottles features a robust 45% ABV. The rum's nose presents an inviting mix of vanilla, tropical fruit, and honey, while the palate delivers bourbon, caramel, and whiskey notes underlined by spicy and orange nuances. Users appreciate its natural profile without added sugar and the clear influence of rye cask aging. However, some find it overly whiskey-like and imbalanced. The rum appeals to those seeking distinctive spirits with a strong whiskey influence, though it may defy traditional rum expectations. Ideal for cocktails like Old Fashioneds, Don Papa Rye Cask offers a distinct sipping experience.

    How is this rum rated?

    6.2/10 37 reviews

    7,8:The nose has nice smoky notes, with a strong whisky edge, juicy apricots.One can easily imagine a fire where a handful of cereals are being toasted, while one takes a whiff of the heather-laden air. On aeration, a little farmyard character develops, with straw and a slight organic touch. Then the rum enters a more familiar framework, made of spicy wood, a layer of black and red fruits with a little tannin, and a little resinous and vegetal vivacity, some glue. 7,8:The mouth is quite powerful, despite a relatively round texture. The most farmy notes are the first to touch the taste buds, then it's around the woody and toasted cereals. Some caramel note. Yep, some pancetta. The whisky aspect remains in mind, notably thanks to the white woody notes mixed with resin, cherry, and pears even dried figs. 7,5:The finish returns to slightly oily and smoky notes, even bit oaky.A little sour aftertaste, dry, but positively. Totally different than Don Papa Masskara, Don Papa Small Batch!Well, also as whisky lover, I like it. Edit:17.1.25-

    This rum is totally out of balance in my mind.
