This is the way we distil
The whole traditional distilling process at Filliers, from mashing, to fermenting and distilling jenever demands the skills of five generations of master distillers to obtain the most exquisite jenevers.
Mashing and fermenting grains to obtain the semi-finished product
Raw materials: Malt, wheat, maize and above all rye give Filliers spirits the character that is acknowledged by connoisseurs around the world. We select the very best varieties from the very best suppliers and grind them in our milling unit.
Mashing: The finely ground grains are macerated together with the barley malt and the chemical reaction turns the whole into maltose sugar. The addition of yeast transforms the maltose sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide.
Fermentation: During fermentation a whole range of semi-finished products emerge. Depending on their composition they add a pleasant or less pleasant flavour to the final distillate.
