Papa’s Pilar Blonde Rum

Papa’s Pilar is an adventurous new rum inspired by life and times of Ernest Hemingway. “Papa” referring to Hemingway and “Pilar” — the name of his 1934 Wheeler Playmate Cruiser boat. Everything from the unique bottles — which were built to resemble canteens used in WWII to the obvious nautical theme is masterfully branded. The (sugar cane mollasses derived) base rums are hand-selected from a variety of sources from ports throughout the Caribbean, Central America and the US. These rums are then expertly married in a unique “solera” aging and blending process — using a variety of barrels including American Oak Boubon, Port Wine casks, and finishing in Spanish Sherry casks. Appearance: Translucent yellow tine / blonde. Nose: Vanilla, citrus, caramel and molasses. Flavors: Vanilla, citrus, sherry and creamy molasses. ABV 42%.
