Tasting Notes
"Displaying a nice maltiness, accompanied by resin, pine sap and a distinct juniper aroma. Finally there's some cumin. The palate is fresh and subtle. The grain isn't in the lead, but it's always there as a base for the botanicals to shine on, such as aniseed and licorice. The juniper notes linger. An oude genever that delivers exactly what you'd want it to."
