100% Malt wine
Henricus is a name with a special meaning.
Around 1182, Gerard van Loon, the sixth count of the county of Loon, founded the abbey of Herkenrode near his residence in Kuringen. He gave the territory, about 3000 hectares in the 13th century, to a certain brother Henricus. On the condition that the brother there founded a monastery for Cistercian nuns. It eventually became the first and largest women’s monastery of that order in the Netherlands.
After 750 years, Brother Henricus is again echoed in this delightful distillate that comes from its founding grounds, provided that the abbeys of Herkenrode are mentioned. Moreover, the drink is named after our distillation kettle “Henri”.
