Introducing
Bumbu XO: The Next Big Thing in Rum
By FBWorld Team
Bumbu
Rum Company is pleased to announce Bumbu XO, a small-batch ultra-premium
rum aged up to 18 years in bourbon barrels and finished in white
oak sherry barrels from Andalusia, Spain. Bumbu XO is distilled
and aged at a 120-year old Panamanian distillery and proudly
uses only local sugarcane and pure spring water.
Bumbu
XO is a full-strength, 80 proof rum, with aromas of toffee,
toasted oak and vanilla giving way to orange zest, peppery spice
and even a hint of coffee on the palate. Bumbu XO is perfect
for traditional rum cocktails but is even better on its own,
neat or over a single ice cube. It is packaged in an ultra-heavyweight,
fragrance-quality paperless glass bottle, with a striking matte
black finish, silver and white details and a tarnished silver
"X" medallion.
Bumbu
Rum Co.'s heritage dates back to the 16th and 17th centuries
when sailors and merchants, unsatisfied with their customary
grog, added Caribbean fruits and spices to enhance their rum's
flavor, giving it the name "bumbu." Bumbu Rum Co.'s
portfolio also includes Original Bumbu, which has quickly become
the world's most decorated rum, including back-to-back "Best
In Category" honors from the International Wine & Spirits
Competition in Los Angeles. Original Bumbu is a Barbadian craft
rum, beloved by fans of sipping rums for its unique, exquisite
taste.
With
its rich, dark hue and golden metal "X" medallion,
Original Bumbu is now far-and-away the fastest-growing brand
in the ultra-premium rum category, driving the largest distribution
gains in the United States of any of the Top 10 rum brands.
