Don Papa Rum is produced by the Bleeding Heart Rum Company. This premium small-batch rum originates from the Philippines, specifically Negros Island, which is renowned for its high-quality sugarcane.
Launched in 2012, Don Papa Rum quickly gained international recognition for its unique flavor profile, which is attributed to the rich volcanic soil of Negros and the traditional distillation process. While the Bleeding Heart Rum Company is the manufacturer, the global distribution of Don Papa Rum is managed by Diageo since 2023.
