Don Papa Rum is the spirit of Sugarlandia. A premium aged rum from the Philippines. Created on the fertile foothills of Mt. Kanlaon, where the finest sugarcane is milled to produce sweet, rich molasses. Don Papa is a tribute to Papa Isio, the real and charismatic leader from the island of Negros, Philippines. His legend was instrumental to the independence of the island during the Revolution of the 1890s. The figure of Don Papa is inspired by Papa Isio, though he is not the same person. Rather, Don Papa is the embodiment of the spirit of Sugarlandia.
Cihuatán Viento is a Limited Edition rum inspired by the legend of Ehécatl, Mayan god of the wind. To honor this divine force, our Master Blender Gabriela Ayala selected ex-bourbon barrels and moved them to a special warehouse filled with the aromas of El Salvador: orange peel from the North, pineapple peel from the South, spices from the East, and balsam from the West. Over two years, the breath of Ehécatl gently infused these flavors into the rum, creating a legendary spirit that pays homage to the wind’s touch.
