Manufacturer Contact Information Bumbu Review: Great rum for a Cuba libre! - This is a very nice spiced rum, which produces a lovely Cuba Libre. It contains strong hints of vanilla with caramelised notes running throughout, creating a smooth and unique taste, however some may find this rum a little sweet. The rum comes in an attractive and distinctive bottle is some weight and can often be found discounted so offers reasonable value for money. Review: Bumbu original 70cl rum - I bought this recently for Hubby's birthday gift, he is a big rum fan and this is one of his favourite rums. He describes it as a smooth drink, caramel taste but not overpowering. Goes down a dream and smells as good as it tastes. Hubby has tried mixing with lots of flavours, he will drink it neat easily but to make it last longer adds fizzy. Pairs very well with lemonade, ginger ale and very surprisingly irn bru! Irb bru is his favourite all time mixer with all his rums. Personally, I don't understand it as I'm a lemonade mixer myself. He says it adds another level, like another flavour and brings out the undertones of the rum. Each to their own. Quality is excellent, no after burn, really smooth. Can taste the different flavours easily and overall a really easy pleasant drink. So pleasant, he can easily drink over half the bottle in one sitting, very effective. The bottle is nice, plain and simple, even elegant but solidly built. You feel youre holding a decent weight of glass when holding this bottle. Good shape. I'd say this is mid range price wise, it ranges from Β£30 - Β£38 depending on where you purchase from of course. To me personally, I think it's expensive for a 70cl but Hubby will argue it's an excellent rum so worth the price. I was super happy that I managed to get this bottle reduced in the prime black Friday sale so snapped it up immediately. If you see it on offer and haven't tried it, I'd definitely go ahead and try it. Happy customer. ## Features - Dating back to the 16th century, when sailors of the West Indies added Caribbean fruits and spices to their rum, calling it "Bumbu" - Bumbu uses the finest sugarcane from locally sustainable farms selected from eight countries throughout the Caribbean and South America - Our Rum is distilled using two continuous stills, at a historic Barbadian distillery founded in 1893, whose traditional rum stills date back to 1840 - After the distillation and aging process, Bumbu is blended with all-natural native Caribbean ingredients, rested, blended again and finally bottled and corked ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08HT2MB9D | | ASIN | B08HT2MB9D | | Alcohol Content | 40 Percent by Volume | | Alcohol Type | Rum | | Best Sellers Rank | 1,571 in Grocery ( See Top 100 in Grocery ) 9 in Rum | | Brand Name | Bumbu | | Container Type | Bottle | | Country Of Origin | Barbados | | Country of origin | Barbados | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (6,949) | | Customer reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (6,949) | | Delivery information | We cannot deliver certain products outside mainland UK ( Details ).

It’s perfect on its own and because it’s so delicious it would be a shame to use it with mixers. The flavours are banana and caramel, giving it a sweeter and more rounded character than many traditional rums. The sweetness may be a bit much if you prefer a drier or more classic spiced rum style, but this is my go-to rum and I’ve bought several of these. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bumbu Original Rum, 70cl - Bumbu Cream Rum Liqueur, 70 cl - Kraken Black Spiced Rum, 1L --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/227295648-original-rum-70cl](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/227295648-original-rum-70cl) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
