I was sold to the dominating taste of bananas, because I love them, but I think that is also the reason not everyone will like it. I agree that this may be more of a liqueur actually... it is really sweet.
Surely there is way better stuff out there, so this rating will do for me.

If you bought it and don't like it, you can always pour some in a glass and use it as a fruit fly trap!

and not as in good. It is a good mixer but not the premium drink it makes itself out to be.

Sweet spices, enjoyable taste, what I would want a spiced rum to be really

Very fruity taste with a lot of bananas after. Too sweet for may taste, but ladies will definitely love it.

Gekozen op basis van de fles (ik geef het toe), maar de ratings waren overwegend positief dus waarom ook niet...

De eerste aroma's van rijpe banaan deden de neusvleugeltjes al trillen van plezier! Een voorzichtig sipje en bijhorende 'swirl' maakte de zoete smaken van banaan, vanille en mango helemaal los. Heel erg lekker en zalig in de nadronk!

Smaakt naar meer!

Very sweet rum, very "round" in the mouth: don't expect anything fiery. But very pleasant... The taste of banana is quite strong, but I do like it (purist may frown at it...)

Un excellent rhum. Très sucré. À déguster. La bouteille est très belle et correspond à look " pirate " recherché.

Amber in color and delicious in flavour. Hints of banana and vanilla, a true delight to sip with a little ice.

Bumbu is a very unique flavour, bordering on liqueur. Like being punched in the face with bananas. If you like very sippable, very sweet rums, this should tickle your fancy. It's fairly unidimensional, with banana being the star of the show accompanied by some caramel and sweet melon. If I'm craving something different, I reach for Bumbu.

Aged for 15 years which is surprisingly long for a rum that is going to be infused with spice to hide some of the nice rum flavor of such a well aged rum.
Anyway, this rum, from Barbados, I was able to get for 25$...a steal!
Sweet, fruity, spicy and rich, Bumbu really has created a masterpiece. Throw in some cardamom, butterscotch, sage, cinnamon and ginger and you have a nice flavorful and somewhat complex rum that was helped out by being aged in ex- bourbon barrels.
Enjoy sipping...
