Historical notes: Bundy Select Vat is finally here but was it worth the wait? According to the June 22nd post of the NewsMail, the answer is a resounding "YES!"
"Jason Tomkins spent 11 days camping outside the Bundy Rum Bondstore. And the wait paid off on Saturday, when he became the first person to lay his hands on the Bundaberg Distilling Company's latest special editions release, the Bundaberg Original Select Vat Rum."
"I turned up on (June 13) and I camped there the whole time," Mr Tomkins said. "I've done it a few times. Last year I camped out for three weeks."
Hundreds of people gathered for the launch of the four-year-old rum.
Bundaberg Distilling Company Bondstore manager Haydn Jobson said the unveiling was exciting for the distillery. "Utilising the Distillery's 120 years of rum making expertise, our master craftsman searched through two-year-old original rum reserves and hand selected those that exhibited the right qualities and characteristics," he said. "These premium rum reserves were then double aged for a total of four years in oak vats to produce this product."
