Excellent experience! - Fantastic experience. Chloe was full
of knowledge and very entertaining. Great price for a 30 minute experience where you get to try several of their runs and hear all about the distilling process.

Please stop at the Sugar Shed you will be pleased you did. - We did 2 tours. A tour of the rum distillery, led by the main distiller Sarah, and the sugar cane tour led by Jess. Both tours were educational and informative. As we are from the UK it is fascinating to learn why there is sugar cane, how it’s grown, harvested, processed and what products are made. Thank you Team.

Interesting insight into the sugar and rum - This was pretty interesting and there are lots of things to sample.
Our tour leader Julie was lovely and offered lots of insight and information.
The sampling of the liquors, jams and chutneys was good too.

- Great tour guide extremely knowledgeable. Downside the facility is owned by the Mackay Regional Council who do not have enough space to store the rum. Hence there was only some available to taste but none to buy at all.
The distillery tour was in the same space as the sugar shed tour and comprised of being informed that this is the still, explained how the rum is made and have a tasting . Quite expensive for what it was.
