Tanneke Gin is a handcrafted Belgian spirit that intertwines history and flavor. Inspired by the tale of Tanneke Sconyncx, a woman from Gottem, Flanders, who was tragically accused of witchcraft in 1602, this gin pays homage to her legacy. Distilled with a blend of nettle, liquorice, and wild hops—herbs reminiscent of those Tanneke might have used for healing—alongside juniper berries and other secret botanicals sourced from the Gottem region, it offers a unique and spicy profile. Each sip invites you to experience a touch of magic and a connection to the past.
