About this product
Rare. Luxurious. Crafted to Captivate.
Don Papa Gayuma is a seductive, ultra-smooth expression of Philippine rum, designed to captivate both the senses and the imagination. Distilled from premium sugarcane grown on Negros Island and carefully aged in oak barrels, this rum captures the rich tropical character and masterful craftsmanship of Don Papa, while adding an extra layer of mystique and allure — a spirit that truly lives up to its name, which translates to “love potion.”
With its luscious, velvety texture and aromatic depth, Don Papa Gayuma offers layers of caramel, toffee, tropical fruit, and gentle spice. The rum’s complex profile is smooth yet bold, balancing sweetness with warmth and subtle oak notes. Every sip tells a story of the fertile Negros soil, tropical sun, and the expertise of the master distillers who craft it.
For rum lovers in Ireland, Don Papa Gayuma is not just a drink — it’s an experience. Perfect for contemplative sipping, sharing with friends, or adding a special touch to cocktails, it embodies the magic, romance, and tropical charm of the Philippines.
Why we love it:
We love Don Papa Gayuma for its velvety smoothness and seductive complexity. Notes of caramel, tropical fruits, and gentle spice intertwine beautifully with subtle oak, creating a rum that’s irresistible neat, over ice, or in elevated cocktails. It’s a rum that charms the senses and invites slow, appreciative sipping.
