Filliers' range of Barrel Aged Genever aims to make quality genever accessible. Instead of focusing on the different types of genever (jonge, oude, etc.), Filliers chose to target age statements. The Filliers 21 Year Barrel Aged Genever consists of 100 percent maltwine made from malted barley, rye & corn. A small amount of juniper distillate is added after the aging process.

Tasting Notes

"A whisper of chocolate with burnt peanut skins, as well as candied raspberry, and whiffs of orange and fudge. It even has an edge of pickled ginger. The palate gives room for warming spices such as cinnamon and cardamom, accompanied by a whiff of juniper and cigar tobacco. A proper aged spirit to savor and sip."
