Bundaberg Original UP

Will drink this any day of the week no worries great with lots of ice and some Coke, harsh as all Buggery straight

Growing up in Australia means that if you drink rum it’s highly likely your go to. Compared to other rums it lacks in many ways but it my old faithful and we have had many brilliant times together. Always in the cabinet!

Привет АвстралиЯ! My shadow on your coast )

Underproof, 37° still feels like good 43.

When ethanol is bit evaporated the aroma of Australian (I guess) soil amuses you. That is some of the most exotic tastes I've experienced out of 115th. Exotic, but the core is still just the sugar cane.

I guess it may be Ok for a cocktail.

My first Bundy rum. The original. Need I say more. Brings back memories of Oz. Drink it neat as well as mixed, both as pleasant as the other. Not to everyone’s taste tho, I have discovered.

Its a good rum then it is warm but then its cold its it taste like bad whiskey and smells like it to but warm it up and its fine but only warm!! 👍🏻

Don't get excited with the word UP, it do not mean any enhancement made to the rum, but Under-Proof.

N- Honey, some white chrysanthemum floral tea. Get medicinal but harmless, shallow and light. (81/17)

P- Whispers of chocolate, honey, nutty and molasses. Peaches too, but too soft and none of the flavours are significant enough to claim a footing. (79/16)

F- Medium, surprisingly lasted quite a bit with ginger. Finely woody with touch of dryness. (84/18)

B/B- 79/16. Drowned by dilution for benefit of volume? Not sure. But surely be better at full proof.

We drank this while camping I'm bundaberg after a tasting session at the distillery. Lovely molasses taste.

You get what you pay for in this rum, cheap to buy but not great to drink

Being an iconic Aussie drink you gotta wander why they chose a polar bear as there symbol, despite their name. Can't remember the last time they where running around Oz.
Did enjoy this rum as a mixer though, had a different taste to any other rum I've tried before, which I liked, and would take this before rums such as appleton's vx etc. Main problems are, it's rather hard to find in NZ & it costs way to much at $60-70 for a litre bottle. It's no where close to being that good. Knock it down to $40 & you'd have a fair rum at a fair price

First rum I have tried so nothing to base it on !!
