Fľaša, ktorá zaujme hneď na prvý pohľad stála nejakých 40€, čo za takýto typ rumu nie je najmenej. Dobrý marketingový nápad, pripomína to nejakých pirátov a pod. Farba pekná, zlato - hnedá až jantárová, po naliatí cítiť veľké množstvo korenín. Toto je naozaj korenistý rum, jemne nasladlý, citíť exotické ovocie s citrusovým pozadím. Na môj vkus je to priveľmi korenisté (to som ozaj nečakal=) čo ale zistíte, až keď ochutnáte. Údajne najstaršie rumy v zmesi majú 15 rokov, to by mohlo vysvetlovať cenu tohto rumu. Inak to nie je zlý rum, z korenistých je určite svojim spôsobom jedinečný, ale podľa mňa nie ako ukážková vzorka stáreného rumu. Po degustácii sme ho s priateľmi vyliali do mixéru s baileys a banánmi, toto bola paráda, tam Bumbu exceloval. Skôr by som ho odporučil do koktailov ako na samotné popíjanie.

Bumbu is my favorite rum. It has really intense smell of vanilia and banana. It's really sweet. Really good looked bootle.

This stuff is best neat, IMO. A little too much banana flavor for me, but not in the way of a flavored bottom-shelf bottle. Lots of brown sugar if you let it sit in your mouth for a few seconds. Absolutely destroyed the 375ml bottle I bought, haha.

Very sweet, yet stilleasily drinkable for me. on the other hand the sugary taste kills it so it's not a good rum for enjoying the tones. Women in the family likes it though.

I love this stuff. Not too complex, but always good.

This rhum is definitly not for everyone. I think they targeted mass consumers, making it very commercial, sweet, and tasty. I like it though. Its identity is unique. I drink it as a digestive, with a cheese cake. Thats not bad… ☺️

So smooth. You can get drunk on it very easily. Sweet, very vanilla, banana and caramel. Hard to stop drinking when you start :)

This is a rum flavored drink, not a rum. It also says so on their bottle, depending on where you bought it from. Measurements for added sugars put it way above the legal limit for what can be called a "rum" but I personally just hate how the alcohol isn't mixed well enough, just like other cheap rums, with the difference being this one isn't actually cheap.
Works for rum and coke, not good for sipping.
For this price, definitely not a buy. Want something good for the price? El dorado 12. Want a sweet one? Just add a little more to the budget and buy a diplomatico reserva exclusiva, it's incomparably better.

I liked this one when I was starting my rum journey. After tasting nearly 100 mire bottles this does not fit my taste profile anymore.

Super sweet, sugary, more akin to soda, not what I want from a rum. I will dump it in a cocktail mix for a Halloween party to get rid of it.

At least the bottle looks cool... That's what earns it another star.

Sweet and perfect. Nice neat rum. I would drink this every day if I could.
