Papalin, a project curated by Luca Gargano, is a brand that takes pride in crafting exquisite rum blends. In October 2013, Velier introduced the first edition of Papalin, swiftly becoming a highly sought-after collector's item. Now, the brand has been revitalized with two new releases, each promising a unique and exceptional rum experience.
These Jamaican rums are carefully crafted vatted rums, a blend of various pot still rums, and undergo 100% tropical maturation in Jamaica. The focus on the authentic Jamaican rum experience is evident in every sip, making these releases a noteworthy addition to any rum enthusiast's collection.
The 7-year-old expression from Papalin serves as a perfect introduction to Jamaican rum, catering to both seasoned connoisseurs and newcomers to the world of rum. Its balanced and accessible nature allows for versatile consumption—whether enjoyed neat, over ice, or as part of a delightful mix.
The nose of this 7-year-old rum is rich and harmonious, unveiling notes of apple, lemon, almonds, eucalyptus, and subtle hints of burnt wood. As it graces the palate, a full-bodied experience ensues, with flavors of vanilla, spice, menthol, licorice, cardamom, and a touch of peppermint. The finish is a lingering symphony of coffee, acacia, green tea, lemon, walnut, and almond milk, creating a long-lasting and rich aftertaste.
Papalin's commitment to quality and the distinct Jamaican rum profile shines through in this 7-year-old release. It stands as a testament to the brand's dedication to providing an authentic and enjoyable rum-drinking experience. Whether savored slowly or incorporated into creative cocktails, the Papalin 7 Years Old at 47% promises a journey into the heart of Jamaican rum craftsmanship.
