About this deal

If this was marketed as the Spiced Rum Based Drink it is, instead of as you can see from the advert above it is noted as being “The Craft Rum” I wouldn’t have much of an issue with this. With an alcohol volume of just 15%, simply serve on the rocks for the perfect addition to a hot summer’s night. Our Rum is distilled using two continuous stills, at a historic Barbadian distillery founded in 1893, whose traditional rum stills date back to 1840. The XO is matured for up to eighteen years in bourbon barrels then finished in casks seasoned with Spanish Andalusian sherry, ensuring an impressively smooth and balanced body.

Yes banana and toffee, I didn't know I was a banana fan, especially not in drinks, but this stuff is heaven.Its striking black bottle design with crossed bones and embossed lettering makes this rum immediately feel affiliated with pirates. Well we have a virtually neutral alcohol based spirit which is hugely dosed with cheap banana and toffee flavouring.

Beneath this is further saccharin like sweetness, which smells like cheap strawberry flavoured boiled sweets. Together with our master distiller, we created a smooth, rich and complex handcrafted rum that is truly unique and unquestionably superior! They mention that it is smooth, easy to drink, and perfect for sipping on its own or mixing in cocktails. Much like “craft” it is a term which doesn’t really have any specified definition that has to be adhered to.

The blend of spices and flavors creates a unique and complex profile that is perfect for sipping on. Please always read the labels, warnings, and directions provided with the product before using or consuming a product.

Produced in a historic Panama distillery that dates back over 120 years, this small batch rum is created first from sweet molasses. Neat it’s a tad on the rough side, but to counter act that burning sensation, there is plenty of sweetness going on (some argue too much) giving this rum a nice yin and yang balance. Presented in a white bottle with the Bumbu X logo shining in gold, this is the perfect gift for a rum and liqueur lover. While we have taken care in preparing this summary and believe it to be accurate, it is not a substitute for reading the product packaging and label prior to use.

Bumbu Original is blended from fine Barbados rum and hand-selected spices, produced at a historic Barbadian distillery founded in 1893 and continuously operated for more than 120 years.
