Don Papa is inspired by the rich heritage and vibrant spirit of Negros Occidental, the sugarcane capital of the Philippines. Named after the revolutionary hero Papa Isio, the brand celebrates the island’s culture, creativity and natural abundance through a range of distinctive premium rums crafted from locally grown sugarcane.

Don Papa Masskara pays tribute to the famous MassKara Festival, a colourful annual celebration that symbolises resilience, optimism and joy in the face of adversity. This special edition combines Don Papa’s signature rum with a pot still infusion of locally sourced tropical ingredients. Native calamansi lime brings bright citrus character, while Siling Labuyo, one of the world’s hottest chillies, adds a gentle warmth and spice. The result is a unique and expressive rum that captures the festive spirit of its namesake celebration.

Light amber in colour, the nose is rich and honeyed with fresh citrus aromas. The palate is smooth and fruity, layered with notes of honey, candied fruit and sweet citrus. Vibrant calamansi flavours bring freshness and brightness, while the finish is long and rich, ending with a subtle, warming touch of Siling Labuyo chilli spice.

Enjoy neat, over ice or as the base for tropical cocktails. It pairs particularly well with grilled seafood, Asian-inspired dishes, citrus desserts and dark chocolate.
