SIX REASONS TO TRY BUMBU

6REASONS TO TASTE

Bumbu is an authentic expression of a Caribbean legend. Cra ed by hand in Barbados and distilled from premium sugarcane from eight di erent countries throughout the Caribbean and South America, this smooth, dark spirit is distilled and aged for up to 15 years to create an e ortlessly balanced delight that boasts layers of complexity and depth.

THERE ARE MANY REASONS TO TASTE BUMBU, BUT WE’VE WHITTLED IT DOWN TO SIX…

1. It embodies the all-natural beverage trend:

Natural is Bumbu’s by-word. Not only does it use natural  avours and spices, Bumbu is also naturally  ltered by Barbados’s coral limestone.

Unlike most islands in the West Indies (formed by volcanoes), Barbados is a limestone island created by coral reefs. Ground water is forced through the limestone and naturally puri ed, where-as Distilleries elsewhere  lter their water. You heard it here  rst!

2. It’s gluten-free:

While we’re talking of trends, Bumbu doesn’t include any grain, making it glutenfree. Tell your friends!

3. Bumbu is the king of cocktails:

Drinking habits may shi , but there are some cocktails that always deliver a familiar embrace and Bumbu can upli any of your favourite tipples.

Whether it’s a Manhattan, an Old Fashioned or a simple fresh Daiquiri, Bumbu’s notes of cinnamon, roasted nuts and allspice take the familiar onto a whole new level of taste exploration.

4. Drink it like whisky—neat or with a cube of ice:

To savour Bumbu’s complex taste, sip neat or with a cube of ice to mellow out the  avour.

5. It can satisfy your sweet tooth:

 ere are many sweet delights that creatively showcase Bumbu’s caramel and to ee notes. A Bumbu Tiramisu? Yes please!

Or if you fancy, pour a shot of co ee and Bumbu over ice-cream and you have a simple A ogato dessert. It tastes amazing!

6. Bumbu is award-winning:
