We know, at this time in Canberra, it is rather cool outside. One of the best ways to warm up is to have a rum. Talking about rum, I would like to recognise the efforts of the oldest operating rum distillery in Australia. Beenleigh Rum, run by Beenleigh Artisan Distillery in my electorate of Forde, was recently awarded at the international level for the quality of its spirits. The 133-year-old distillery picked up five top gongs at one of the world's most influential spirit competitions—the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in California.
