A. van Wees Distillerderij de Ooievaar was built in 1782 and today remains the only artisanal distillery in Amsterdam. Fenny van Wees and a few historic workers in the area are the custodians of the secrets of this timeless distillery, where only natural ingredients and no artificial colors are used, following tradition.
Particularly famous for the production of Jenever (grandfather of gin), it produces over 17 different types with aging up to two decades.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
