Genever Zuidam Genever 3 YO (100cl 38%) - crb

Genever (from the Dutch jeneverbes, juniper) was first created in the 17th century by the physicist Franciscus Sylvius de la Boe, in Leiden, in southern Holland, as a tonic and depurative. Medicinal use quickly changed to recreational and hedonistic use, and from the Dutch countryside, where it was distilled by hundreds and hundreds of artisanal microdistilleries in the winter months when work in the fields was stopped, it soon arrived on American shores, until it became a favorite distillate of the pioneers moving to the lands to the west, even effigy in the 7 Oscar-winning film Dances with Wolves, where the typical bottles appear in many scenes, and even the protagonist occasionally does not disdain a drop.

Distilled three times discontinuously from a mash of corn, rye and malted barley, it is added of three botanicals: juniper, licorice and star anise and distilled again. It then ages in small 200-liter first-pass American oak barrels and other American ex-bourbon barrels. A spirit of great tradition, delightfully smooth and ideal in high-end blending.
