That's an awful chemical like rum.
It taste fruity but too much and really too artificial with tiny hiden caramel and vanilla taste.
It's a bit like drinking shampoo (without bubble).
I try it diluted with wather (1/1) and you only have the artificial taste after that (really awful).

Le packaging a été travaillé au détriment de l'équilibre du produit. Les fruits confits emportent tout.
Ce produit devient TRES vite écoeurant !

Un rhum philippin très sucré au goût de médicament, sans aucun intérêt il est très désagréable à boire.

I was looking forward to Don Papa, and finally had a chance to have a taste at Trailer Happiness in London last night.
The nose is a combination of fruity/orange and cough syrup. Unfortunately this slightly off-putting fragrance carries right through to the taste, which is like a bad version of Pyrat. The finish lingers and reminds of the poor initial almost sour flavour.
Mixing with coke didn't help, and might have even made it worst. In general, I'm not sure what Don Papa is best mixed with - maybe a blended drink? I'm Interested to hear what others think.

N- Caramel, warm brownie and cola candy. Piped vanilla cream, lemon meringue, packed with various sweet tropical fruits infusion on a sandy notes. Hoped for some spices but seems missing from the mix, so this smells really sweet and dark indeed. (17/25)
P- Cola flavored carbonated candy that just popping around on the palate, ripe creamy fruits, vanilla and creme brulee. Heavy and buttery distillates with relatively full body at low proof, which is a good thing, and just hoped no sugar added prior bottling...benefit of the doubt. (17/25)
F- Short, dust of sweet and hot pepper, cafe latte with cinnamon, lemony sugar candy. Round and smooth. (17/25)
Balanced:- A lizard on my head too. Melting pot of sweet fruits, but somehow is not cloying, may be the touch of lemon does helps. Try it if lemon, vanilla and cola are your things. (17/25)
