Two women in sugarcane fields with glasses of rum.

Rum is a wonderfully misunderstood spirit.

We're two Australian women who want to change the perception of rum. We want to create a new culture for rum, and help make Australia one of the world's greatest rum producing countries.

Why? Rum is made from sugarcane. Australia crushes 30 million tonnes of sugarcane every year, and we're the world's 4th largest exporter of raw sugar.

What is rum made from?

The main ingredient in rum is sugarcane. It grows along a 2,000km stretch of coastline on the east coast of Australia, in both tropical and subtropical climates. 95% of Australia's sugarcane is grown in QLD, while only 5% is grown in Northern NSW. Making sugarcane from the Northern Rivers very special.

Is sugarcane sustainable?

Yes. It's a rapidly renewable crop that's more effective at capturing carbon than other common plants. Its waste pulp is also used to generate renewable energy, bio-based plastics and sustainable paper alternatives.

Is our label made from sugarcane?

Yes! Our label is a sustainable paper alternative made from sugarcane waste pulp.
