About the Producer

Zuidam Distillers is a family-owned craft distillery located in Baarle-Nassau, Netherlands. They have been making award-winning spirits since 1975. Zuidam’s specialty is barrel-aged genevers and liquors. The Zuidam family combines generations of distilling expertise with quality ingredients to create distinctive spirits with depth and complexity.

The Production Method

Zuidam Dutch Courage Gin uses nine carefully sourced botanicals including juniper, iris root, coriander, citrus, angelica, liquorice, cardamom and vanilla. Each botanical is individually distilled to extract the purest essence and robust flavour. The juniper is distilled solo to obtain its bright, piney essence. The citrus fruits are distilled separately to preserve the acidic flavours.

In total, there are 14 dedicated distillations just for the core 9 botanicals. Only once fully distilled alone are the botanicals artfully blended and redistilled together. This allows the flavours to harmonize perfectly. The result is a remarkably fresh, complex gin with intricate layers reflecting each individually distilled botanical. Zuidam’s innovative production technique creates a gin of impressive balance and depth.

Tasting Notes

Zuidam Dutch Courage Gin balances the piney, earthy notes of juniper with citrusy orange and lemon.

There are spicy hints of ginger and floral elderflower. The hops lend grassy, herbal flavours while the oak gives it a barrel-aged roundness.

The finish is long with lingering notes of spice and hops.
