‘A.van Wees distillery de Ooievaar’ was established in 1782. Until 1970, the distillery delivered its products in casks to bars and restaurants, however, due to changing market conditions, the company finally decided to begin selling its products in stone and glass bottles. Wees remains a family business, with the distillery today run by Fenny van Wees, together with a small loyal crew, so preserving a once world-wide famous Dutch cultural inheritance. The house specialities are Old Dutch Geneva Gins and select liquors.

Caraway seeds are excellent aids to digestion which we eat in cakes and bread and also use to flavour liqueurs. The plant was profusely cultivated in Holland through the Middle Ages and the earliest recorded caraway liqueur was made by Lucas Bols in his small Amsterdam distillery in 1575. To this day, the worlds finest Kümmels are produced in Holland.
