Bumbu XO in Bologna: Panama rum with a sherry-cask finish

Bumbu XO is distilled and aged in Panama, matured in ex-bourbon barrels and finished in sherry casks. The producer describes toffee, toasted oak and vanilla, followed by orange zest, spice and coffee. The matte black bottle with its raised X identifies the XO expression at Jimmy.

Bumbu XO is part of the selection photographed at Jimmy Cocktail Lab & Food, Via Petroni 32/c, Bologna. Ask the team for current availability and serving options.

Recognising Bumbu XO

The matte black bottle with the raised X, photographed at Jimmy, is the XO expression. It deserves its own description rather than being grouped with Bumbu Original.

From bourbon barrels to a sherry finish

The producer’s stated process starts in Panama and uses ex-bourbon barrels followed by sherry casks. That gives you a concrete starting point when choosing a rum.
