We had the unique opportunity to purchase barrels of beautiful Genever from Boomsma in Leeuwarden. The family company, which was established in 1883, offered us a few amazing casks. Boomsma continues to use artisanal methods to produce their Genever in copper stills, and their products have received numerous national and international awards. The fact that we had the opportunity to acquire barrels directly from them is quite exceptional. They had never before sold casks directly to an independent bottler.
After a selection with Bad Medicine we transported the casks to Terschelling and allowed them to age a bit on the island before bottling.
Typically, Genever is diluted with water to lower its alcohol by volume (ABV). However, we wanted you to experience them at cask strength!
This particular Genever has been fully aged for 6 years in Bordeaux wine cask 43a. It was distilled on 06-04-2017 and bottled on 14-06-2023.
