Note: “Dutch Courage” was the name of the portion of gin given to Dutch soldiers before battle during the Thirty Years’ War. There was a need to take courage and a few glasses of gin could help. The Zuidam distillery was founded in 1975 in the Netherlands. It was a factory of just 300 meters with a single copper still capable of producing a single line of products. Today the distillery has significantly expanded: 3500 square meters and four different production lines. The unique taste of Zuidam gin comes from a special blend of botanicals distilled using the discontinuous distillation method. The plants, spices and flavourings used are all natural: the juniper berries and orris root come from Italy, the coriander from Morocco, the angelica root, fresh sweet oranges and lemons from Spain, the vanilla pod from Madagascar, the licorice root from India and the cardamom seeds from Sri Lanka. Dutch Courage 88 is what happens when a fantastic Dry Gin is left to rest in American oak barrels.
