Do we have a selection of fun experiences for you!

Brix Distillers has everything you’re looking for, whether you want to learn more about the background of creating rum, participate in a cocktail master class or learn how to watercolor paint whilst sipping on a gorgeous beveragino.

Brix Distillers is an independent Australian Rum producer founded as a passion project and expanded into a Surry Hills distillery and bar in 2018. The bar is the best spot in town to experience Brix’s rum, which is prepared with natural Australian flavours and locally obtained Australian ingredients like molasses and sugar cane from Queensland.

Brix Distillers have curated some amazing culinary experiences; adventures that are sure to be enjoyed by friends, family and foodies. So, grab your friends, family or lovers and take a trip to Sydney’s popular Brix Distillery in the hip Surry Hills neighborhood.

The Class:

Upon arrival, you will be greeted with a Brix Spritz.

At the start of the class, you’ll be introduced and briefed on the history of rum and then you’ll be able to see how the pros work their magic at the distillery – as they say, we must learn to walk before we can rum (see what I did there!).

After learning everything there is to know about rum, it will be your turn. You’ll learn how to blend and spice up your very own rum using an assortment of in-house spice and botanical infusions.

At the end of the class, you will be able to take home two of your very own stunning rum concoctions (2x 200ml bottles). Now all that’s left to do is host a party to show off your new and very impressive skill in rum spicing!

You will also receive $10 gift voucher to for any Brix bottle purchases on the night.
