Zuidam Rogge Genever 5yo 20cl

This Zuidam Rye Genever is due to the extra long maturation a silky smooth but very rich genever. The unique spiciness of the rye is supported by the flavors of the juniper, licorice root and the aniseed.

As always, we first distill a grain eau de vie from 100% rye. The Rye is ground and mixed with warm water, creating an old-fashioned batter that is distilled three times in real copper pot stills after a long fermentation of 7 days. During a fourth distillation we add herbs such as juniper, licorice and a little bit of aniseed. The genever is now matured in its entirety for at least 5 years in new oak barrels.

This allows the genever to develop its refined and soft taste and deep color.
