Fred van Zuidam founded Zuidam Distillers in 1975 in Baarle Nassau in the Netherlands. The distillery produces a wide range of spirits - genevers, gin, and the first Dutch whiskey, Millstone. The Millstone brand was choosen to honour the traditional Dutch windmills which milled the malt for the distillery.
