The Bundaberg Rum Distillery is the home of Australia’s most famous rum, which has been made to a time-honoured tradition for over 135 years. The Brand Home currently offers two tours; the Bundaberg Rum Distillery Experience and the premium Blend Your Own Rum Experience.

Explore the history of Bundaberg Rum by wandering through the self-paced Museum, which is housed in six 75,000 litre oak vats. After immersing yourself in a unique sensory experience and learning the stories of Bundaberg Rum, you will join one of the expert Distillery guides on a journey deep into the heart of the fully operational Bundaberg Rum Distillery. Finish off your tour with two tastings of our rums and liqueurs.

For those that want to try their hand at becoming a Master Blender, the premium Blend Your Own Rum Experience allows guests to learn the art of blending their very own rum straight from the barrel.

The large Retail Store has a huge selection of rum and merchandise where visitors can purchase exclusive and limited-edition products. There is also the Bear Garden, a covered Alfresco Bar & Dining area with all your favorite rums, Forever Classic cocktails and our signature hotdog, the “Bundy Banger”.
