Distillation and production

Production method

Cereal-based alcohol; for the gin the recipe involves the addition and processing of 28 botanicals via maceration/infusion and subsequent distillation. The company produces in batches and uses controlled distillation processes and, for some expressions, maturation in casks.

Distillation

Maceration/infusion of the botanicals followed by distillation; production based on cereal alcohol and batch-controlled distillation.

Ageing

For some references (aged genever, barrel-aged versions and the whiskies) maturation in casks is used; for the single malts the use of ex-sherry casks is cited for aging.

Producer history Filliers

The Filliers family has produced spirits for generations: the historic headquarters are in Deinze and activity is documented since 1880. In 1928 Firmin Filliers developed a gin recipe that later became the basis for Filliers Dry Gin 28; across the 20th and 21st centuries the company expanded its range to include jenevers, cereal-based vodka and a line of whiskies (including aged releases). In recent years Filliers has relaunched and promoted its labels more broadly at an international level.

Production philosophy

Family work and generational continuity, attention to craftsmanship and product quality, combining historic recipes with the development of modern expressions. Values highlighted within the company are passion for the craft, transmission of know-how and care in the selection of ingredients.
