Bombo Rum Liqueur - Caramel & Spices (No Box/Torn Label)

Product Information

Spiced rum tends to follow a pretty well-worn path. But Bumbu is something quite different, and well worth exploring. This cookie is set by Rubicon Project to control synchronization of user identification and exchange of user data between various ad services. As spiced rums go, it’s one of the most unique expressions I’ve ever encountered — decidedly light on the “spice” notes, which results in a softer, more thoughtful rendition of the classic spirit. Ultimately, it feels like it is built to drink more like a dessert, and less like a rough-and-tumble pirate grog. Without those harsh notes of dried spices, Bumbu lets a more natural, sweeter, fruitier, and elegant spirit to emerge. Who knew?

But if you’re expecting another fistful of cloves and cinnamon, think again. Here’s how Bumbu actually comes across. The nose is immediately unusual, with overtones of banana, caramel sauce, vanilla, and almonds — all the makings of a lovely banana split. That banana is particularly present on the palate, where it finds a complement in chocolate, more almond, some light coconut milk notes, and lengthy, lingering, creamy vanilla with just a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg on it.Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie. It’s overly sweet. Sure many dark rums, especially spiced rums, are sweetened a little to accent their complex flavours, but this is well beyond any regular rum sweetening. It’s better qualified as a liqueur. What Bumbu doesn’t tell us is what spices are used to flavor the rum. Only this is known: “Using the same all-natural native spices and no artificial colors or flavors, our rum is an authentic revival of this piece of Caribbean history, distilled in small batches and blended by hand.”
