Proeflokaal Wynand Fockink

This tasting room has been around since 1679. Old documents on the wall give an impression of the history of the spirit. Of the traditional liqueurs that can be found in the range, many have their origins in the 17th and 18th centuries when the VOC supplied the necessary exotic spices, nuts and fruits in abundance.

17th century character and range

The authentic tasting room still has a 17th century character and range. They serve a wide variety of gins and liqueurs. The various own liqueurs include many old Dutch liqueurs, such as Perfect Geluk, Bruidstranen and Hansje in de Kelder. Liqueurs such as the Boswandeling and the Half and Half have made Wynand Fockink world famous.

In addition to the delicious jenevers (Superior) and fruit brandies, you can also enjoy excellent draft beers here. The characterful Tasting Room, which houses a special collection of antique bottles, still has the tradition of bowing before the first sip.
