Rutte has a long history; recipes have been passed down from generation to generation. Where industry in the last century was looking for cheaper methods and raw materials, this "innovation" passed the Rutte family by. Fortunately, as a result, old recipes and craftsmanship have been preserved. Even though the distillery has not been in the hands of the Rutte family since the 1990s, the tradition is kept alive and Rutte still distills in the same idiosyncratic way as its forefather Simon did.
Every Saturday you can just walk in for a mini tasting at 3:00 pm or 4:00 pm. No reservations are necessary.
You will be welcomed downstairs at the distillery for a small tour where you will hear the story of the company's beautiful history and distilling. A tasting of various Rutte products will conclude.
