Papa’s Pilar Rum is debuting its 2022 ‘Legacy Edition’ rum, the second in the limited edition lineup. This rum combines the flavors and distinctions from nine different rums sourced from five locations: Barbados, Dominican Republic, Panama, Venezuela, and Florida. The rum is then transferred to premium French Oak Apple Brandy barrels to be aged. A writer's notepad is included in the bottle's pocket on the rear, which is stamped with the Papa's Pilar Rum slogan "Never a Spectator" and wrapped in genuine leather to match the form of the classic WWII canteen bottle.
“[...] I hand-selected some of the most unique barrels for finishing: French Oak Apple Brandy casks. These brandy casks produce apple-forward characteristics, which is rare in rum. You’ll also find notes of vanilla with a touch of honeysuckle and a dark rich honey finish. The result is a rum unlike anything you’ve tasted,” said Papa’s Pilar’s Master Distiller Ron Call.
