Sarina Sugar Shed

This is a one-hour fully guided tour. The tour starts with a welcome and introduction, followed by a short walk outdoors, past our sugar cane patch and historic machinery. Your guide will take you on a brief historic journey into the pioneering days of the sugar cane farmers in the Mackay region. Then it is back indoors, into our mill and distillery area, where your guide will take you through the process of extracting juice from fresh sugar cane. The tour finishes with tastings of our rum and fruit liqueur products, our chutneys, relishes and sauces, our non-alcoholic ginger beer, and our freshly-spun fairy floss.
