Details: Bundaberg Pure Gold, released in 1999 exclusively for the Duty Free market.
Its timely launch enabled maximum exposure of the Bundaberg Rum brand during the
2000 Olympic Games and would appeal to overseas visitors looking for the perfect
gift and exclusive memento of their visit to Australia.
Pure Gold was matured in oak vats and charcoal filtered to give a smooth, mellow
flavour.
With sweet hints of caramel, a light taste and a rich golden colour, Bundaberg Pure
Gold can be enjoyed neat or on ice.
Bundaberg Pure Gold is said to be the forerunner for Distillers No. 3.
