"Unlike the other Bumbu, this really tastes like Rum in the first place. But generally like you'd imagine how an average rum tastes, so there is nothig outstanding. But still not bad, overpriced though in my opinion."

"Better than the original. I like the flask with the iconic X and the taste is delicious. Ideal for casual drinking for an affordable price."

"Just like its Original version, this is a good rum to start with but this time, we can say that it is a rum. A good entry level rum for aged (and accessible) rums and also very good to prepare one's palate to less sweet things (without the 40g/l of sugar) despite being finished in sherry casks. Nevertheless, it is a rum that loses a lot of interest by tasting more complex and worked things. We also regret this opaque black bottle that hides the liquid and, for my part, the cork that ended up being attacked by alcohol. However, the bottle remains in this pirate spirit, quite fun at first. A rum with, I think, more interest in mixology than dry."
