Bumbu The Original

General Information

Bumbu The Original is a rum liqueur based on Caribbean rum, inspired by 17th-century recipes of sailors and explorers. The rum is produced in Barbados, where it matures for up to 15 years in ex-bourbon barrels made of American oak.

After aging, the rum is flavored with a secret blend of natural spices and aromas, including vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and tropical fruit. The result is a sweet, full-bodied, and rich rum liqueur with a distinctive character.
