Product description
New Holland Brewery & Artisan Spirits is a company based in Holland, Michigan, operating since 1996, initially as a microbrewery, and since 2005 also as a distillery.
In 2011, it installed an additional 3,000-litre distillery, which increased its potential tenfold. Its commercial offer includes rum, gin, vodka, bourbon and rye whiskey finished in barrels from its own beer, as well as Zeppelin Bend Single Malt whiskey.

The fermentation process lasts up to 10 days, and at least 4 years of maturation takes place in heavily charred American oak barrels.

Palate : milk chocolate, caramel, vanilla, toffee, bananas, coconut water, roasted peanuts, pepper and oak.
Finish: medium long, with notes of caramel, vanilla cream, pepper, ginger, a touch of coconut flakes and oak.
