  • Papas Pilar Rye Cask leans on the spice of rye whiskey barrels to help curb its sweetness and clear dosage and it works pretty well. These rums always tend to lean sweet - if that's your jam then you'll be right at home with their latest release.

  • As it stands, this rum feels impossibly overblown and in need of a considerable level of tempering — or, at least, a judicious approach to mixing.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Rye spice on the nose to balance the sticky, maple sweetness of the rum.

  • Taste:

    The palate is full and rich, viscous and layered while remaining an easy sipper.

  • Finish:

    Notes of caramel, pancake syrup, spiced tobacco and a long finish that blends together rye spice, cracked pepper, maple and sweet cocoa

  • Overall:

    Papas Pilar Rye Cask leans on the spice of rye whiskey barrels to help curb its sweetness and clear dosage and it works pretty well. These rums always tend to lean sweet - if that's your jam then you'll be right at home with their latest release.
