If only the New York Knicks scored as well as their namesake, Knickerbocker Gin … there would be a few more championship seasons in New Amsterdam.
New Holland Brewing Company was the brain-child of two college buddies—Jason Spaulding and Brett Vander Kamp. They launched their little enterprise back in 1996, at the leading edge of the craft brewing and distilling movement. Based in Holland, Michigan, they have grown formidably, but have remained staunchly independent. Today they brew a wide range of beers and, in 2005, began distilling spirits, ranging from Whiskeys, Rums, an Orange Liqueur, and Gins.
What’s a “knickerbocker” anyway? Well, it’s pants … as in, “don’t get your knickers in a bunch!” It’s also as in “The New York Knicks,” and we all know that New York was once called “New Amsterdam” right? Amsterdam in is Holland … New Holland brewing … get it? Knickerbocker Gin is, at its heart, a London Dry style Gin, and a very nice one at that.
The list of botanicals is just as it should be, twelve in all; juniper, coriander, angelica root, orange and lemon zest, cinnamon, ginger, orris, cardamon, fennel, clove, and nutmeg. That fennel is a pleasant surprise and accounts for the spice. It will certainly be a winner in your next cocktail with that spicy fennel acting as counterpoint to the freshness of the tonic and fruitiness of the Negroni.
SmartAss Corner:
“Knickerbocker” was the nickname given to Dutch immigrants landing in New York because of the traditional baggy pants worn by the men.

Few Gin Distillers Make Their Own Alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral spirit: A commodity that in distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavour-infusing process that makes each Gin different.

Ratings & Reviews
Michael,
Great Gin! I tried this in the Ginaissance sampler and immediately bought a bottle. Goes great with Fever Tree tonic.
Floyd,
This has become my favorite gin. It is smooth and complex, not too flowery; dry with a woodsy flavor. Great for martinis.
Deja,
I love this gin!
Samantha,
My favorite of the tasters in Ginaissance. A nice, smooth, complex gin that is great as a stand alone drink, but would be fantastic in a G&T s well.
Doug,
Delicious! Flowery and piney, perfect for a dry gin martini with a little more Briney garnish. Certain vermouths expose a tinge of spearmint.
