Papa's Pilar Rum
United States
Inspired by Ernest Hemingway's spirit of adventure, Papa's Pilar™ is an artisan-crafted spirit sourced from hand-selected rums spanning the Caribbean, Central America and the U.S. then solera blended to perfection on American soil. Rum was once a noble spirit. It was served aboard warships, rationed to visionary explorers, and used to sustain the Founding Fathers as they plotted revolution. It was a drink consumed by men who understood that you only get one shot at life.
