Depaz Cuvée Papao 2020
"Terribly gourmand on the nose," as one taster put it — fresh sugarcane, ripe tropical fruit and lime, then a rounder palate that turns peppery with anise and licorice on the way out. Several call it oily, fresh and medium-dry, with a light mineral, faintly salty edge. At 48% it has real power without ever tasting hot. A natural for sipping neat or in a ti punch.

How does Depaz Cuvée Papao 2020 taste?
Aggregated from 25 community reviews.
Fresh, peppery cane-juice agricole blanc Well-liked white agricole — bright cane, lime and a peppery, licorice finish. A couple of tasters preferred the 2019 vintage, but this one still lands as juicy and well-made.

Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Most helpful positive review
Nose: Sweet cane, ripe exotic fruits and lime. Taste: Round, with notes of aniseed/ liquorice before moving on to cane and peppery spices. The nose is terribly gourmand, as I like it with blue cane, and on the palate it's spicier. On the other hand, I preferred the 2019 vintage to this 2020 version, even though it's still a great success.

Agricole blanc a little above standard at a nice price. Tasted after l'âme de la montagne, which I really liked. The cuvée Papao made less of an impression on me, but is still of fine quality. Perfect for a ti punch.
Review by GuybrushThreepwood
This is more similar to the Cuvee de la Montagne than the Alizés Blanc. However, it has a little more power, but the alcohol is a little more noticeable. Nevertheless, it is by no means fizzy. Lime, sugar cane and sweetness on the nose. Refreshing, juicy, aniseed and licorice notes on the finish.
Review by Morgan Garet
Excellent, very fruity and cane-like. Drink neat or with a ti punch🔥
