100% Tasting Fun.

Zuidam Distillery was founded in 1975 in the Netherlands by Fred van Zuidam. The beginnings were humble. It took them over 10 years before the business started taking off – that is after Fred's wife Helene started designing the packaging for the products. These days the distillery is run by their two sons Patrick and Gilbert, however father Fred is still involved in all recipes and mother Helene continues to do the design. The family uses local windmills for the production of malted barley, helping preserve an important Dutch heritage of the World famous windmills. 

Zuidam Millstone 100 Rye Whisky is a 100 proof, 100 months old, 100% Rye Grain, 100% Small Batch and 100% handmade Rye Whisky. A different take on Rye, indeed. We found a chocolatey feel to it, which we haven't discovered in American Rye's before.

Martin
Martin,
Just not to my taste.
 
Matt
Matt,
Slightly sweet, with vanilla and sweet corn on the nose. Overwhelming pepper finish. Preferred with ice.
 
Antti
Antti,
It is a very good, intense, Rye Whiskey that has an aromatic birth with notes of rye, chocolate, pepper, spices, grass, orange blossom, roasted lemon, a hint of thyme, brown sugar & sweet Bourbon; while a full & creamy life adds notes of lemon, pine, toasted oak, cinnamon, malted barley, pepper & sweet rye; that leads to a warming death of medium length with notes of cardamom & waxy fruits.
 
Mat
Mat,
I reckon this gets one star for novelty .... really unique aromas with some malty notes and toasted oak, but mainly I got a fresh timber note - like a wood shop/lumber yard, which was interesting if a little strange. I did get the chocolate note too. Malty and toasty oak flavours on the palate with some sweetness coming through on the finish.
 
Derrick
Derrick,
Tasted like pepper and cinnamon mixed into white dog.
 
Jon
Jon,
Not great flavor. Little bit of oak and little bit of sweet, but overall comes across muddy flavor
 
Sebastian
Sebastian,
I for the chocolate flavour... I tasted few times but this was not my cup of tee.
 
Stefan
Stefan,
Choclate and spicy on the nose. A hint on the fruity and bready note. The same things are on the taste but their is also some oaky and bourbon notes that make it taste a fruity, smooth and spicy at the same time. Good first rye whisky to introduce a person into rye.

Interesting aftertaste
 
Edoardo
Edoardo,
Chocolate twist to a good rye whisky. it becomes more rounded and less spicy and savory, going towards new comers in this whisky trip. For everyone

Good pepper flavor, but a little harsh taste
 
Daniel
Daniel,
Aroma: wood, faint hint of pepper, slight tinge of rubbing alcohol. Taste:. Peppery spice strong, warmth that is almost hot. On ice: spice is subdued, oak comes through, hint of sweetness. Overall great! I would be happy with a bottle of this on my shelf!
 
Erik
Erik,
Peppery at first but a lot of citrus and caramel at the end. Too strong to have straight. Best over ice and a few stirs.

Robert
Robert,
Inspection: Nice Golden color. A good stick to the side walls of the glass. Aroma: Very smooth, Strong Toasted Oak, and Vanilla. Reminds me of The Holidays. Taste: Very Spicy, and Pepper after taste. Not my favorite Exhale: Also very Spicy. A bit much. Overall: Not for me. Aroma smelled so good, but the taste and exhale is just too spicy and peppery for my liking.
 
Michael

Wilford,
My favorite of the three. Great aroma, almost a licorice scent. Spicy, sweet, nutty, with a wonderful lingering aftertaste. If I'm going to drink Rye, this is the one I want.

Tim
Tim,
Very interesting chocolate taste. Definetely worth a try!
 
Dean
Dean,
There is just nothing special to this rye. Lacking the typical rye flavor and having an overpowering spiciness to it. A cap full of water really helps to bring out depth in this rye.
 
Brad
Brad,
Tasty. Want it to be good due to being Netherlands heritage. Good body and cinnamon. Lon

That was sweet.
 
Lorenzo
Lorenzo,
Very good Rye. Delicious sweet chocolate, vanilla notes, nice smooth finish, creamy texture. I enjoyed this sample, will definitely grab a bottle of this.
 
Micah
Micah,
Very interesting, tones of citrus notes on the nose and a sort of orange quality, I would be interested to see how this played with chocolate bitters. Kind of a holiday chocolate covered orange, but whiskey!!!
