Right out of the gate, giant nose of vanilla and banana. First sip confirms the vanilla and waaaay too much sugar. Tasty though!

Banana and vanilla forward. Very sweet. But that's my pallet. May not be for everyone, but worth trying.

This is the first Rum I could sip. It is my favorite.

Nice light drink. Sugar+vanilla+banana.
If you prefer sweet rum without strong alcohol aftertaste, you will find Bumbu really nice.

I really did not enjoyed this “rum”, it has too much banana flavour and not delicate taste.

It pours brown in colour. Aroma and flavour are of banana and vanilla. It's quite sweet and only just on the right side of smooth to drink neat. I prefer to drink it with cola or Kinnie but it's certainly not the nicest rum I've tasted.

This is a decent rum if you go into it expecting (and being okay with) a heavy banana flavor. It’s almost more like a banana liqueur with rum flavoring. That aside, it is very smooth and goes down nicely. Unlike many others’ reviews on this site, I quite enjoy the aesthetic of the bottle. Looks really nice on a shelf! Only wish the flavor was slightly more up-to-par.

I am an unashamed pollutist, not a purist. I appreciate both ends of the rum spectrum, but have a definite sweet tooth. Leaning more towards a liqueur in many ways, but a fantastic bottle nonetheless.

I though this one must be something funky like plantation fancy with that pineapple... but this time, it’s really to much banana flavor for me. This Rum is really to sweet for me. Little bit more and milk just goes more aggressive and alcoholic drink then bumbu.
But the good thing is that this Rum are totally different from others, and I like it. I think this Rum should be good and interesting in cocktails. And my wife like it. That’s the most important thing...)

Sorry, 6+

Has a strong butterscotch taste that didn't work well for me. My wife really liked it though.
