Vink Whisky, an emerging brand in the world of distilled beverages, has captured the hearts of whisky enthusiasts with its unique and flavorful creations. Based in the Netherlands, Vink is known for its artisanal approach to whisky making and providing a distinctive Dutch twist to this beloved spirit. The journey of Vink Whisky began with a vision of creating high-quality whisky with a Dutch touch. The brand focuses on combining traditional distillation techniques with Dutch ingredients and influences to offer a unique and surprising flavor experience to whisky lovers worldwide.
Vink Whisky has taken on the challenge of breaking traditional standards and providing a new perspective on whisky. They have chosen to embrace local Dutch influences and integrate them into their whiskies to create a unique and distinctive flavor profile. What sets Vink Whisky apart from traditional whiskies is the use of Dutch influences during the aging process. Vink has chosen to use unique casks, such as former genever barrels and oak barrels that were previously used for aging Dutch liqueurs. These casks give the whisky an intriguing blend of flavors and a subtle Dutch undertone that stimulates the senses.
Aging whisky in these specially selected barrels adds a characteristic Dutch touch to the final drink, making Vink Whisky a special and remarkable experience for whisky enthusiasts.
Founded by a group of enthusiastic whisky enthusiasts, Vink Whisky is based in the Netherlands. The inspiration for creating Vink Whisky stemmed from a deep-rooted love for whisky and the desire to give a Dutch twist to this beloved spirit.
The production process of Vink Whisky begins with the selection of high-quality grains, such as barley and rye, which are carefully milled and mixed to create the mash. This mash is then fermented, with natural yeasts added to convert the sugars into alcohol. Fermentation plays a crucial role in developing the base aromas of the whisky.
After fermentation, the resulting mixture is distilled in traditional copper stills. The distillation process is carried out with precision to maintain the purity and quality of the spirit, and to develop the desired flavor profiles.
The master blenders of Vink pay great attention to blending the different whiskies to achieve the perfect balance. It is a delicate process where various flavor elements come together to create a consistent and balanced drink.
Although Vink Whisky is a newcomer to the whiskey market, it has quickly gained recognition among whiskey lovers and critics. The innovative approach, combined with the Dutch twist, has given Vink Whisky a unique position in the world of distilled beverages.
At Tasting Collection, you will find a beautiful selection of Vink. Now it's just a matter of making a choice, and we will ensure you quickly enjoy your favorite drink. View the range, place your order, and we will promptly deliver your Vink whisky.
Behind this carefully thought-out brand are well-known names that have been active in the Dutch beverage world for years. One of the driving forces behind Vink Whisky is Ruben Wolvekamp and Sebastian Kolstee, who previously turned the gin world upside down together. Six years ago, they launched Kever Genever, a brand that helped pull gin out of the slump and carefully leave its dusty image behind.
However, behind Vink Whisky is a much larger team than just Ruben and Sebastian. Because although the two friends have a lot of passion for drinks, the expertise for making that drink is sought elsewhere. As with Kever Genever, collaboration was sought with De Tweekoppige Phoenix, where father and son Arthur and Allard Kruijt are in charge.
De Tweekoppige Phoenix is a distillery in Zaandam that has been making a name for itself for years. Master distiller Artur Kruijt is a connoisseur who works on Vink Whisky with great care and passion.
Vink consists of whiskies aged from three to seven years and is distilled from various grains. Mostly barley, but also rye, corn, and even wheat, which according to the makers gives a nice fruitiness to a distillate.
The main flavor contributor is the wood where Vink has been aged all those years. Vink Whisky Triple Wood spent time in a former bourbon cask that previously held Scotch whisky, but also in an ex-bourbon cask made of American oak, and an ex-red wine cask made of French oak from a grand cru in the Bordeaux region. The result is an accessible whisky that manages to hold your attention.
