The history of Bundaberg Rum began over one hundred years ago in the sugar cane region of central Queensland. Bundaberg first began producing commercial sugar in 1872, but the real boom came in the 1880s when Queensland enjoyed a surge of economic growth. The first barrel of Bundaberg Rum rolled out of the production line in 1888. After a long history of trials and tribulations, Bundaberg has gained recognition as one of Australia's most recognizable brands.
