While rules keep things pure and regulated in the spirits world, sometimes the best alcoholic beverages are made when the rules are thrown out the window in favour of creating something that just tastes bloody delicious. We've seen it with Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream Whiskey Liqueur, Sheep Dog Peanut Butter Whiskey Liqueur, and even Fireball, but now Bundaberg is throwing its hat in the ring with a limited edition Peanut Butter Brittle Flavoured Spirit (AUD$55).
Technically, Bundy Peanut Butter Brittle can't be called a rum as it doesn't meet all of the strict regulations laid out in 1906. However, there's plenty of dark Bundaberg Rum here to carry all of the gently roasted peanuts, sweet butter and brittle flavours on the palate.
Bundaberg Peanut Butter Brittle is the latest in the brand's annual warming Winter Series, which has previously included Toasted Lamington, Coffee & Chocolate Royal Liqueur, and Campfire Rum, which was so popular the brand added it to their list of regularly available special releases. Peanut Butter Brittle is available today in bottles and pre-mix cans that blend the sweet peanut flavours with Bundy's signature cola.

Palate : Gently roasted peanuts, sweet butter and brittle flavours

There are some strict rules around the labelling of 'rum' in Australia, but the main one is that the liquid in the bottle must be aged for a minimum of two years. Where Bundaberg Peanut Butter Brittle falls into that category, we don't know, but with an ABV% of 37% and plenty of peanutty flavours, it's a smooth drop that's perfect to drink neat or on the rocks.
Alternatively, the Peanut Butter Brittle Flavoured Spirit can be purchased in cans, with a Bundaberg Winter Series Roasted Peanut Butter Brittle & Cola 4 pack 375ml priced at AUD$28.95 and available right now at the retail locations linked below.
We'll be getting our hands on a bottle of Bundaberg Peanut Butter Brittle shortly and will update this very article once we've had a try. If Toasted Lamington, Coffee & Chocolate Royal Liqueur, and Campfire Rum were anything to go by, it's going to be a delicious hit for winter here Down Under.

Worst in a decade: Disney's controversial Snow White flops
Disney's latest attempt at bring an old classic to life has been labelled a failure with the live-action Snow White flopping in the box office. The live-action remake of he 1937 classic was released March 20 this year, and looked set up to be a hit with a massive budget of $416 million. However that didn't prove to be the case, as the large scale production and investment in marketing all proved to fall flat, with the film making $316m at the box office. labelled the film 'officially a flop', with being the biggest live-action remake bomb for Disney since Pete's Dragon in 2016, which made $143.7m USD ($221.9m AUD). The film wasn't exactly set up to succeed, as the blockbuster was marred by controversy before it was released. Actor Peter Dinklage, known for his role in Game of Thrones, was openly critical of Disney for considering to portray the titular dwarfs. 'You're progressive in one way, but then you're still making that f****g backwards story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together. What the f**k are you doing, man?,' Dinklage, who has dwarfism, said on Marc Maron's podcast in 2022. This prompted Disney to take a 'different approach', with the seven dwarfs instead being CGI — a change that copped both criticism and praise. While lead actress Rachel Zegler, playing the role of Snow White, put many off seeing the film all together. Critics took issue with Zegler as the casting choice, with the fictional character's defining feature being her 'skin as white as snow', while the actress is of Latina decent. Her antics on social media caused an even bigger stir, being openly vocal about her political views which rubbed many the wrong way. She also took a stab at US President Donald Trump on social media in the lead up to the film's release. On top of this, fans of the original story took issues with the narrative changes, with Zegler poking fun at the original story line back in 2022. 'I mean, you know, the original cartoon came out in 1937 and very evidently so,' Zegler said during Disney's D23 Expo. 'There's a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her. Weird. Weird. So we didn't do that this time.' The film has now hit streaming services where it will likely see more success after bombing at the box office.

Yashica Launching Affordable Answer to Fujifilm in FX-D Camera
By Jacob Osborn - News Published: 13 June 2025 |Last Updated: 10 June 2025 Share Copy Link Readtime: 3 min Every product is carefully selected by our editors and experts.

The name Yashica may ring a bell as the Japanese camera and equipment brand that ceased production back in 2005, but after a Hong Kong-based company purchased the trademark rights a few years later and brought the business back from the brink. The 2017 launch of the Y35 DigiFilm camera combined digital technology and an analog-style design, and peopel clearly liked it, as the camera raised over $1.2 million on Kickstarter and paved the way for future models. And now you're more or less up to speed as we introduce Yashica's latest endeavour: the new FX-D camera series. Currently raising funds on Kickstarter – where it's soared well past its initial goal – the FX-D series continues a trend set forth not just by the rebooted Yashica but also brands like Fujifilm. While digital at heart, each camera in the range generates authentic film simulation photography and video. Users can alternate between various modes with ease as they replicate an assortment of analog aesthetics. A digital shooting mode is likewise available, thereby bringing owners the best of all worlds. Yashica FX-D Camera | Image: Yashica Want to capture images in black and white? There's a mode for that. Or maybe you want to shoot video in the granular style of 1970s cinema? There's a mode for that as well. There are six unique film simulation modes overall, allowing you to explore and create as you develop a personal style. Meanwhile, the camera's physical design language takes cues from pre-existing Yashica models like the FX-3, but with plenty of modern touch-ups. The FX-D series runs the gamut of modern specs across its relatively small range. At the most affordable end of the spectrum is the FX-D 100, which includes a 13MP sensor and goes out to everyday creators. A notch above that is the FX-D 300, a 50MP high-resolution camera that offers more functionality and flexibility. And if only the best model will suffice, there's the FX-D S300. It takes the professional-grade features of the FX-D 300 and throws in an OLED Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) to heed customer demand. Ultimately, you might think of Yashica's FX-D camera series as a tactile way to render analog-style effects without dealing with the headaches of traditional analog photography (film processing, etc). Call it your smartphone filters on steroids if you will, but some people still crave a more tactile experience. Will you get a relatively similar – if not far superior – experience with a quality Fujifilm camera? Perhaps, but the price point will be much higher. Here you get (arguably) comparable performance for a fraction of the price, especially when you take advantage of those early bird specials.

Arnold Schwarzenegger wants family movie with Patrick Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt
Arnold Schwarzenegger is keen to make a movie with Patrick Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt. The 77-year-old actor is open to the idea of a collaboration with his 31-year-old son and son-in-law - who married his daughter Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019 - but insisted they wouldn't do so for the sake of it as the script would have to be good enough. He told E! News of the possibility: "It's one of those things that if there's a great script, then of course, we would do it. "But you can't just make up this stuff. You can't just say, 'OK, let's just put the three together in a movie and not have a great script.' " The Fubar star called on filmmakers to make the project happen. He said: "You don't have to talk about it, just do it." Arnold - who, as well as Katherine, 35, and Patrick, 31, also has Christina, 33, and Christopher, 27, with ex-wife Maria Shriver and Joseph Baena, 27, with Mildren Baena - is also open to the idea of following in his son's footsteps and starring in The White Lotus. Asked if he'd be interested in a role in the anthology series, he said: "Whenever I see something good, I am interested in it, so we will see." The former Governor of California is delighted to witness Patrick's success because his son has always been interested in acting. He said: "Patrick always had a love for show business. He has spent a lot of time on the set with me when he was a kid. He was doing his homework in my movie trailer, he was watching me shooting on stage. I think he got the desire right then and there." Meanwhile, the veteran action star is excited about the new season of Fubar, even if he finds certain physical scenes "very, very tough" these days. He teased: "The second season is a lot, a lot of great, great action, and also really funny moments. "The actual sequences are very, very tough to do, especially when you do night shoots and all that. But it's a lot of fun." While Arnold is proud of Patrick, he recently admitted he was shocked when his son stripped naked in The White Lotus. During a joint interview for Variety's 'Actors on Actors' series, he told his son: "I couldn't believe [it]. "I said to myself, 'I'm watching your show, and I'm watching your butt sticking out there.' And all of a sudden, I see the weenie. "What is going on here? This is crazy. "Then I said to myself, 'Well, Arnold, hello. You did the same thing in Conan and Terminator, so don't complain about it.' "But it was a shock to me that you were following my footsteps so closely."
