Bumbu XO Rum

The long awaited Bumbu XO is a smooth, rich and complex handcrafted rum created from scratch by the master distiller. Aged for up to 18 years in bourbon barrels to achieve a beautifully balanced, endlessly sippable rum. Finished in Spanish sherry casks made from white oak grown in Spain's Andalsuia region. No aritifical colours or flavours added, only the best hand selected sugarcane, pure spring water and oak. A full strength sherry cask finished rum that can pair with the most robust cigar and is perfect for traditional cocktails, but we think this should be enjoyed neat to showcase the excellence that is Bumbu XO. Distilled and aged at their sister distillery in Panama, where they created a truely unique and unquestionable superior rum. The distillery dates back to 1890 and the still they use is from 1912, thats more than 100 years old! 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. Just like their smash hit bottle of the Original Bumbu, Bumbu XO is named for the 400 year old rum 'Bumbu' made by sailors and merchants of the 16th and 17th century West Indies. Bumbu XO marks the next chapter in the recreation of this authentic Caribbean legend!
