TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: From the opening, a captivating aroma of sandalwood and cinnamon emerges, accompanied by gentle spices that awaken the senses. A delicate floral touch, dominated by elderflower, hints at an intense and refined tasting experience.
PALATE: On the palate, the power asserts itself while maintaining admirable harmony. The spices from the nose reappear brilliantly, enhanced by a persistent floral touch. The high alcohol content (62.5%) is perfectly integrated, offering a controlled intensity that never overwhelms the palate but structures it elegantly.
FINISH: The finish is long and expressive, marked by toasted and subtle notes reminiscent of 75% intense cocoa. A roasted and delicately bitter sensation extends the experience, leaving an indelible memory.

Don Papa Gayuma, which means "love potion" in Tagalog, is a unique cuvée that pays tribute to the traditions of the shamans of Negros Island, in the Philippines. This carefully crafted super-premium rum marries artisanal expertise with a history rich in rituals and legends. This rum is the result of an exceptional aging and finishing process. Aged for 3 years in ex-Bourbon American oak casks, then finished for 6 months in high-heat toasted Rioja casks and an additional 3 months in intensely toasted Islay whisky oak casks, this rum unfolds a complexity that surprises and seduces. With its peaty notes (a first in the Don Papa universe) and its rich, gourmet bouquet, it invites enlightened enthusiasts to a unique and intriguing experience.
Brazil is very famous for being one of the largest producers of cacao and coffee in the world. It was natural for us to associate these notes with our Gran Chaco Brazil Rum. The design of the bottle was inspired by Brazilian wildlife: the patterns represent some of Brazil's most emblematic animals. The color green was chosen to represent the country and suggest the natural habitat of its wildlife.

Yerba mate tea is an iconic beverage of Argentina, which is why we wanted to include it in our Gran Chaco Argentina rum. For this version of the rum, we drew inspiration from the nature and lush landscapes of Argentina. The patterns on our bottle trace the path of nature, at the heart and source of our production: from the earth, where the rich flora of the Gran Chaco is rooted, to the sky. The design also evokes serenity and the call of the night: through the deep blue of the bottle, it reflects the sun setting behind the mountains and the phases of the moon and sun.
