Bumbu The Original

The nose is spectacular in fruit and sugars. Pineapple, peaches, mango, banana, orange zest, lemon zest, vanilla pod, butterscotch, and toasted caramel are all present. On the palate the sugars hit immediately coating the roof of the mouth, the tongue, and teeth. Salivation is almost instantaneous, causing the want, no, the need for the next sip. A perfect offering for an after dinner drink to sip and reflect on the day's events. Should be 20 proof points higher and this would be on my all time favorites list. Love the nose, love the taste, but the finish is too fleeting. Nose: 4.75/5 Taste: 4.0/5 Finish: 3/5 Overall: 4.0/5 Repurchase: Yes Type: Friday Night Pour/Special Occasion

Nose: full vanilla, marshmallow, banana Palate: vanilla, sweet, candy Finish: vanilla, sticky, honey, warming spices

Very nice and tasty. Great flavor

I get the spices and hint of banana, but any other "fruity" flavors are beyond my palate sensitivity. Very good, none the less. Bit pricey for blended/flavored rum that's only 70proof
