Bumbu XO is truly a thing of beauty. A smooth, rich and complex handcrafted rum created from scratch by our master distiller, our XO is aged up to 18 years in bourbon barrels and finished in Spanish white oak sherry casks to achieve a beautifully balanced, endlessly sippable rum.

This special release is distilled and aged in Panama, where we created a truly unique ? and unquestionably superior ? rum. Aromas of toffee, toasted oak, and vanilla give way to orange zest, peppery spice and even a hint of coffee on the palate.

A wonderfully engaging rum that encourages repeat visits, Bumbu XO is perfect for traditional rum cocktails ? and perhaps even better on its own, neat or with a single ice cube.

TASTING NOTES

Aromas of toffee, toasted oak, and vanilla give way to orange zest, peppery spice, and even a hint of coffee. A wonderfully engaging, sherry-finished rum that encourages repeat visits and can pair with a robust cigar.

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Panama
AGE: Up to 18 years in American bourbon barrels;
finished for at least 6 months in Spanish sherry casks

Fresh & zingy classic dry rum

TBH this one surprised me. I just love the straight Bumbu, so I expected this was going to be another sweet rum. Definitely not, nothing like it - polar opposite in fact. It's a classic dry rum - ignore the blurb about vanilla, toffee etc. It's a true dry rum, no sweetness anywhere. It tastes quite fresh and zingy to me - not quite the depth and silkiness of something like Diplomatico (gold standard to me) but it is so smooth. Some classic rums have that brandy type flavour, whereas Bumbu XO is more subtle and lighter-tasting. As I mentioned - fresh is the best I can offer. More of a summer rum than a winter-in-front-of-the-fire rum. Superb quality though. This is one I drink neat - it would be criminal to mix it. I still prefer Diplomatico, which is also $20 cheaper - not entirely sure this one is worth the extra $20 but it really is a good one and I will definitely buy again. Really - if you've tried the normal Bumbu - erase that from your taste buds, this is a classic dry quality rum smooth as a badger's rear end that you wouldn't think is from the same company - though it makes sense that they must use a quality smooth rum as a base for the more liqueur-type Bumbu.
If Diplomatico is the ultimate 5 stars (without spending silly money) then this is a 4.9 - I'm going to have to investigate more of the S.American rums - they knock spots of a lot of the Caribbean ones IMO.
