Don Nocturno: The king of malt wine

Don Nocturno Corenwyn is regarded by true connoisseurs as the sweet spot for anyone looking for an artisanal distillate with crystal-clear balance. Brouwhoeve’s master distillers have created clear, layered complexity in this recipe by filling the corenwyn on 12 January 2022 into a special American oak cask that had previously held Oloroso Sherry and our own whisky. What makes this release special is its crystalline texture; thanks to an extra-rich composition of 55% malt wine and an ageing period of exactly three years, the aromas of pecans and marshmallows remain beautifully clear. It is a drink that brings the vital energy of patience and craftsmanship straight to your glass.

At Brouwhoeve, we appreciate this Corenwyn for its remarkable depth and silky mouthfeel, reminiscent of a high-quality whisky. It shows how a traditional Dutch distillate can feel both lively and modern, with notes of orange peel blending beautifully with vanilla and nutmeg. Double distillation and unique cask ageing create a fuller, more intense flavour profile than many standard genevers. This exclusive limited edition, with only 218 bottles produced, sets the standard for modern craft.

Buying Don Nocturno Corenwyn means choosing liquid history in its purest and most balanced form. A lively, silky corenwyn for enthusiasts who enjoy a full, spicy profile and a strikingly clean, harmonious finish.
