Bumbu Original

If you read "And a bottle of rum" by Wayne Curtis, you'll note that "bombo" was an early (in the history of rum) mix of watered down rum with extra sugar/molases, which is basically what is on offer here - as such the extra sugar and water make it sippable and easy on the pallet.

That said, based on friends I have introduced it to, the taste definitely splits opinion - much like the reviews I have read here. To me the unusual bananary flavour and easy sipping offers a party like change of scene from more traditional rums.

Lots of sweet vanilla on the nose and then an even sweeter hit of banana. Very thick, synthetic tasting stuff this. Obviously got a lot of added sugar with some artificial banana and vanilla flavouring. OK for a little sip but you don't want too much and it's far too sweet for a mixer. This is not rum, it's more like a hybrid rum / banana rum liqueur.

The flavor is great. One of my favorite together with Flor de Cana 12.

the true rum snobs will hate this bottle, but I really like it for s straight taster

This is a great run to share with your non-run drinking friends. Very easy to drink

Nagyon édes, nagyon vanilliás "rum", csak csajoknak ajánlom.

Too much sweetness..une drink ok,but more than that,is too much for me.

This one is one of my favorites, its sweet with a hint of vanila. No stong alcohol aftertaste in the mouth

I like this rum. It's not incredible but it's tasty and the aesthetic of the bottle is cool aswell
