— Delicious and smooth. Perfect for sipping over ice. Nice notes of toffee, vanilla, Carmel with a little spice. This is what a bourbon drinker drinks on vacation.

Thomas
Thomas,
Definitely good Rum. Not as smooth or as easy to drink as the regular Bumbu. It is worth the money if you do want it, but I would save the few extra dollars and get the regular Bumbu.

Smooth and flavorful, but have had better at a cheaper price.
 
Chalecha
Chalecha,
One of the smoothest Rums that has ever hit my palate. Smooth with the right amount of kick. One square cube and a nice glass = paradise.

Austin,
I prefer the original lighter Bumbu
 
Mat
Mat,
Really prominent lemon notes on the nose with some caramel coming through too. Initial citrus hit on the palate but toffee and oak notes come through as well.
 
Michael
Michael,
Good rum, but I wouldn't consider it a sipping rum like others I have tried
 
Ray
Ray,
Extremly smooth
 
Jason
Jason,
Not as good as the original
 
Pat
Pat,
Definite flavor of coffee. Hints of vanilla. Little more spice than I enjoyed, but very flavorful drink.
 
Robert
Robert,
We absolutely love this rum. It goes well by itself, on the rocks, or mixed with a cola. The XO is just a bit more smooth than the regular version. We have people that call themselves “Non-rum” types try it and each time they love it. Highly recommended.

Spice at first. Sweeter as is goes down

Definitely too sweet to mix, but great for sipping when a sweeter liquor is what you want.

WOW just as good as the other one.
 
Richard
Richard,
The flavor on this rum is fantastic but not quite as smooth and enjoyable as the original of the same brand. Still a fantastic rum and was very worth trying. IF i had not tried the other flavor first i may not have as this really is still very amazing.

Great smooth rum.
 
Jason
Jason,
A great sipping rum. On the initial sip, you feel the vanilla. You catch the hints of toffee in your mouth as the warmth increases. It finishes with a great roasted sweetness. I'll be sure to keep this one stocked.
 
Carlos
Carlos,
Very smooth sipping rum. I enjoy with ice.
 
Jack
Jack,
