Bumbu XO Lil' Wayne Sticker Edition Rum
Bumbu XO Lil' Wayne Sticker Edition Rum is the collector's take on Bumbu's flagship XO: the same ultra-premium rum — aged up to 18 years in American bourbon casks and finished in white-oak sherry casks from Andalusia, Spain — dressed in special-edition Lil Wayne "Funeral" sticker artwork celebrating the rapper's 2020 chart-topping album. Bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV), 750mL, it pours the signature Bumbu profile: toffee, toasted oak, and vanilla on the nose, giving way to orange zest, peppery spice, and a hint of coffee on the palate. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Music-Culture Rum in a Collector's Skin
Lil Wayne has called Bumbu XO the G.O.A.T. of rum, and for his thirteenth studio album — 2020's number-one-selling Funeral — the partnership went official: a limited run of Bumbu XO in collector-worthy black-glass bottles with "Funeral" sticker artwork. The rum inside is unchanged — the small-batch XO blend aged up to 18 years and sherry-finished — which is exactly the point: drink one, collect one.

Tasting Notes
Retailer consensus on the Bumbu XO profile: aromas of toffee, toasted oak, and vanilla lead; the palate layers orange zest, peppery spice, and a hint of coffee over the sherry-cask richness; the finish is long, sweet, and complex. A dessert-leaning pour that reads older than its 80 proof.
How to Enjoy
Neat or with a single large ice cube to let the sherry-cask layers open. Its sweetness and depth also make a premium rum Old Fashioned — and the sticker-edition bottle is built for display after the pour.
