Burdekin Distillery Distillers Edition Burnt Cane Spirit (700ml)

Burdekin Distillery is located in Majors Creek, Queensland, at the foot of Mt. Elliot within Bowling Green National Park. The area is a hub for sugar cane growing, providing the key ingredient for its rum production which includes both fresh cane juice and molasses-based spirits.

Double distilled and rested in a re-charred ex-bourbon barrel for two years, Burdekin's Distillers Edition was initially only available to guests of Queensland's Sweet Days, Hot Nights festival — so it's kind of a special memento to commemorate the spirit of the event. Burnt cane from the cutting competition in Home Hill was crushed then fermented with a proprietary yeast blend. It's described as having aromas of peach, vanilla and Anzac biscuits followed by subtle flavours of honeyed spices, woody undertones and a super-smooth, smoky finish. 40% Alc./Vol. No additives.
