Zuidam (1975) is one of the last independent Dutch distilleries. When oldest son Patrick starts at the company in the early nineties, a lot changes. Their Single Malt Whisky is released at the beginning of 2007 and when in 2012 a 12 year old version matured on Sherry casks is internationally acclaimed, this is the big breakthrough. Today, various casks are being used for maturing: Sherry and Bourbon casks and casks of new American and French oaks. Everything is still produced here in the same traditional way.
