Bumbu The Original 15yr 35%

"This is definitely a good rum for beginners. A bit too sweet for me, but still nicely balanced and an easy sipper. The nose is sweet with vanilla and chocolate. The palate is sweet and fruity with spices and caramel. Kind of a smooth rum. The finish is medium and sweet with vanilla. "

"out of the bunch of the super popular spiced rums, I guess I like this best (way better than Don Papa). it gives strong Bananabread vibes that are interesting and don't taste too chemical like with Don Papa."

"Very sweet rum. As I've read, they put tropical fruits in the distillate, which makes it extremely sweet. This is not a rum for me, but could be an entrance-rum for someone unfamiliar. It has a sweet nose and heavy notes of banana, vanilla and caramel. Updated with picture from the same tasting"

"2022 Interesting development of banana/caramel on the nose, solid on the palate to a slightly toasty finish. Unfortunately very, very sweet, almost sticky, which drowns out any other flavors that may be present. A nice party sipper in an admittedly very succinctly decorated bottle."

"Nothing for me, much too sweet and artificial. Better than Don Papa, but that is not a real opponent."

"6,8:The nose is very sweet, opening with notes of banana candy, caramel. This confectionery rum announces a very bubblegum spirit, with peach syrup and a hint of grenadine, pear. Aeration takes us to even sweeter notes of cinnamon and vanilla, with the powderiness of a marshmallow. 6,2:The palate is round and sweet, with a slightly spicy barley-sugar flavor, caramel. The banana candy melts into a syrup scented with toasted oak, pear and develops into roasted notes (coffee). 6:The finish is sweet, round, sticky and roasted."

"Smell 3/10 Taste 3/10 Aftertaste 4/10 Image 4/10 (info about rum, bottle, carton-box, sugar free, marketing....) Total impression 3,5/10 ------------------ BTL Due to the fake marketing one of the worst enemies at the gates of the real rum world for all newbies 👎👎👎"

"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! 🥃"

"Another rum that I came back to after a long time just because I figured I wouldn't do a single rumx entry in retrospect. It's chemical, it's sweet, but it was one of those things that got me on the rum journey. I showed it to a lot of people, and they were thrilled. Nowadays I try to dazzle all those people with rums from Jamaica, for example."
