Bumbu The Original (70cl, 40%)

Bumbu The Original is a blended Barbados rum. The recipe idea goes back to Caribbean sailors and traders of the 16th and 17th centuries, who added regional fruits and spices to their rum. Today it is distilled in small batches on Barbados and blended by hand. The rum is aged in former Bourbon barrels, with components aged up to 15 years. Vanilla and caramel meet banana, nuts and oak, giving a sweet-spicy character. It suits drinking neat as well as cocktails. On the nose, Madagascar vanilla and soft caramel join spicy oak. The palate shows ripe banana, roasted nuts, cinnamon and allspice. The finish is soft with mild sweetness.
