Real market price drops instead of discount labels: RumX monitors 40+ shops around the clock. A drop only counts when the price falls below the previously lowest market price (at least −5%) — we never show shops' own strike-through prices.

The Sansibar lineup compared

Which bottling is the better one is decided neither by price nor by the age on the label. Here they stand side by side, sorted by the community's median rating. The number of ratings sits next to it: a high score from few voices says less than a middling one from many.
