    Süßrum, vollreife Banane

    Well, what to say. Bumbu is one of my most favorite rums of all time. In the Fun for your buck ratio it doesn't have much contenders at all. Fruity and bananas. Mnam dopici.

    Very sweet rum with a predominance of banana in the sensory aspect. In mouth it takes very well and is pleasant. It goes very well with a marijuana cigar and grilled meat. Salu! 🥃

    Who likes banana, will also like Bumbu.many of my acquaintances speak of a "women's rum". I disagree, I like it very much. Smell and taste very "bananig", yet a real rum with slight sharpness. Of course, also sweet, but R.H. Riise is partly much sweeter.
