THE 1871 CLUB
The 1871 club is a tribute to the history of our region and is an exclusive insider’s opportunity to follow the journey of Nil Desperandum.
In 1871, the Nil Desperandum Hotel opened its doors in Woombye. Licensee James Costar proudly welcomed Cobb & Co’s coaches which ran three times a week between Brisbane and the Gympie goldmines and sugar cane fields were first planted in the region.
Sugar, the Nil Desperandum Hotel and Gold… you can see where we’re going with this.
Members receive five Nil Desperandum Limited Edition releases per year including one Limited Edition release exclusive to The 1871 Club.
12 months of rum.
Strictly limited to 1871 members.
WHY BELONG TO THE 1871 CLUB?
Because you love great rum and you have the taste to distinguish incredible rum from good rum.
Because fine tasting rum, crafted by expert distillers is a taste worth waiting for.
Because being a part of a community, connecting with Head Distiller Adam Chapman, and getting a real insiders experience to the creation of Australia’s Finest Rum sounds like an opportunity not to be missed.
Australians love rum and so do we. Our spirits belong in the glass of someone with a passion for good things in life who just knows there’s something more.
