Built around molasses-based rum and finished in four different types of sherry casks, it brings together tropical rum-making traditions and the layered flavours associated with Spain's great fortified wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe journey begins with maturation in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, developing a foundation of vanilla, caramel and gentle oak. The rum is then finished in four distinct sherry cask types: Fino, Pedro Ximénez, Cream and Palo Cortado. Each contributes something different, from Fino's drier character to the rich dried-fruit sweetness of Pedro Ximénez, the roundness of Cream sherry and the nutty, spicy complexity of Palo Cortado. The finished blend is bottled unfiltered at 45% ABV.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe result is a full-flavoured, velvety rum with notes of raisins, ripe plums, figs, chocolate and warm spice, balanced by a drier, nutty edge. It is a particularly interesting expression for anyone who enjoys sherry-finished whisky or richer aged spirits, offering a different perspective on what Philippine rum can deliver.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReleased as a limited edition, Don Papa Sherry Cask is best approached as a bottle to savour rather than simply another rum for mixing. It makes an excellent after-dinner pour and a distinctive addition to a collection of premium rums.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"590\" data-end=\"919\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2465\" data-end=\"2484\"\u003eWhy we love it:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe four-cask finish gives Don Papa Sherry Cask a genuine point of difference, combining luscious dried fruit and chocolate with the more savoury, nutty notes of sherry-aged oak. Its richness makes it immediately inviting, while the 45% bottling strength and unfiltered presentation give it a more substantial character. A particularly appealing choice for fans of sherry-cask spirits looking to explore beyond whisky.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Don Papa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54981062197594,"sku":"4809015157152","price":115.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/1745\/4426\/files\/Don_Papa_Sherry_Cask_Rum.webp?v=1793051886","url":"https:\/\/vpmerchants.com\/products\/don-papa-sherry-cask-rum","provider":"VP Merchants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
