The brain-fruit of Bundy's noble Master Distillers' Collective, ''Dark Oak'' was inspired by local barrel-baron Dave Schmeider, who handcrafted the original oak barrels used to create this rum. To honour the humble cooper, our master craftsmen filled heavily charred American Oak barrels with some of their richest and most delicious rum reserves.

According to a report in the News Mail, it's been as eagerly anticipated as any release. One Rum lover, "Benjamin Nutley was determined to be the first person to get his hands on the Bundaberg Distilling Company's latest limited edition.

Mr Nutley, 21, said he and three other Bundy locals were camping outside the Bundaberg Rum Bondstore for 25 days to secure their place at the front of the line.

"I just really love my Bundy Rum," he said.

Mr Nutley arrived on Wednesday and said it was his fifth time camping out for a rum launch.

"We have people on call to bring us out food in return for one of the bottles," he said.

Armed with monopoly, puzzles and cards he has plenty of entertainment.

But Mr Nutley said he won't be drinking his bottle. "I've already collected seven so this will be number eight, " he said.

Bundaberg Distilling Company Bondstore branch manager Haydn Jobson said rum fans were sure to enjoy the Barrel House's latest creation. "Dark Oak will be the fourth limited edition bottle to be released from the Bundaberg Master Distillers Collective," he said.

Each of the 60,000 bottles of this limited release is individually numbered. 40% Alc./Vol.
