Don Papa Rum

Sugarlandia is calling

When we think of rum, we often think of the Caribbean, but on the other side of the world, they also produce high-end rum. Don Papa Rum is a premium, aged, single-island rum from the Philippines, made on the fertile slopes of the active volcano Mt. Kanlaon on the tropical island of Sugarlandia. And, of course, this name didn’t come from nowhere…
