Australian Rum

Australian rum, you say? Yes, the Caribbean is not the only place where rum is produced, and Australia has a warm, suitable climate in the northern regions for producing Australian rum. The rum industry in Australia developed in the late 19th century with the emergence of the first distilleries. Today, the leader in Australia is the Bundaberg brand, which alone accounts for 75% of the country's market and only exports 4% of its production. The sugarcane used to make Australian rum comes from Queensland, and as required by the "Australian Rum" designation, Australian rum must be aged for at least 2 years.
