Tons of added sugar (sticky lips), added banana extract and vanilla extract, an ugly, childish bottle that screams 'themepark giftshop': this is a joke. Those 'professional' reviewers on spirits/lifestyle-websites that say this is good rum have either been bribed by Bumbu or have no idea what rum really tastes like. This is not rum, this is a banana licqueur It is so sweet, I was sick after half a glass. Only if your diet consist of liters of sugary energy drinks - and your ability to discern anything but sweetness has long since died - could you appreciate this rum. It's a disgrace.

This is actually what got me in to rum. Its not actual rum though it is delicious to sip with one cube of ice.
They call it a craft rum which means nothing and is misleading. It has a ton of sugar and artificial flavours added. The bottle is really cool though.

It’s a sweet sipper that can be enjoyed in a limited way as it’s a trendy new market out there. More will be coming so enjoy for what they are. A smooth sipper after getting off the ice after a hockey game

Love this rum. Perfect on its own. Smooth on the tongue and packed with flavours. Banana the main one. Easy to drink. Very nice.

This is a uniquely delicious rum. The overarching aroma and flavor of banana is the most noticeable characteristic, but it certainly isn’t overpowering. This is going into my regular rotation.

Lovely colour out of the bottle and has a very fruity nose. It tastes sweet (although not as sweet as it smells) and strongly of vanilla and bananas. Look: this isn’t fine rum, but it is very quaffable. I drink it neat and it slips down easily enough. Sippable.

More of a sweet liquer than a rum Very attractive presentation with pirate-like "X marks the spot" bottle design and a big cork stopper.

Decent sipper. Maybe a bit too sweet. Caramel and vanilla notes. Enjoyable.

It is sweet but not overwhelming... nice taste but a bit light and simple.... not really aged. Good for cocktails or drinking on the summer when you chill in the beach.
