Zuidam Old Genever 5 Years – Aged Dutch Genever

Zuidam Old Genever 5 Years is a masterclass in traditional Dutch distilling from the family-run Zuidam Distillers in Baarle-Nassau. Crafted in the classic oude jenever style, this genever is made from a malt wine base — a blend of rye, corn, and malted barley — and aged for 5 years in American oak casks, giving it a depth and character that sets it firmly apart from younger, lighter genevers.

Rich amber in colour with a complex, malty nose of vanilla, honey, and gentle oak. On the palate it's full-bodied and warming, with notes of toasted grain, dried fruit, soft spice, and a long, smooth finish. A bridge between genever and whisky — exceptional sipped neat or on the rocks.
