Hooghoudt - a family business with tradition!
The production of liqueurs and spirits has a long tradition in the Netherlands. World-famous brands such as Bols, de Kuyper and Ketel 1 have their origins in our neighboring country. The Hooghoudt company, founded in 1888, fits seamlessly into the long line of traditional companies. The company was founded as a liqueur and spirits manufacturer by the married couple Grietje and Jan Hooghoudt in what is now the center of Groningen.

In the beginning, the two experimented with extracts of various herbs and spices on the basis of current scientific publications at the time. The aim was to transfer as many aromas and active ingredients as possible from the raw materials into the finished liqueur. The Hooghoudt family's success proved them right, and due to the high demand for the high-quality products, the production facilities had to be expanded for the first time in 1914. Just a few years later, in 1920, the company distilled its first own genever, Hooghoudt Oude Klare, and was thus able to become independent of external producers. Six years later, the second generation, son Ludolf Hooghoudt, joined the family business. He developed various lemonade syrups that are still very popular today. With Bert Hooghoudt, the fourth generation of the Hooghoudt family is now at the helm and directs the company's fortunes. Under his leadership, the portfolio was expanded to include many new and innovative products and the design of the products was completely overhauled, so that Hooghoudt appeals to younger and older customers with its diverse products.

The Hooghoudt Bessen Genever
Bessen Genever is a traditional Dutch product that is also becoming increasingly popular in Germany. It is a mixture of genever and extracts from fresh fruit. The Hooghoudt Bessen Genever mainly uses black and red currants, which also significantly shape the aroma of the Bessen Genever. The Hooghoudt Bessen Genever is best enjoyed neat or mixed with Prosecco!

Hooghoudt - A family business since 1888 The history of the Hooghoudt family business goes back to 1888. At that time, the married couple Grietje and Jan Hooghoudt opened a small liqueur and spirits factory in what is now the center of Groningen. They made use of the scientific knowledge of the time and produced a wide variety of schnapps and liqueurs based on the latest research results. Always with the aim of retaining as many flavors and active ingredients from the raw materials as possible in the finished product. Due to the high quality and excellent taste of Hooghoudt's products, demand rose quickly and the previous production space was no longer sufficient. In 1914, the factory premises were finally expanded and modernized. The company's next milestone followed in 1920, because in that year Grietje Hooghoudt distilled the company's first own genever, the Oude Klare. In 1926 the second generation of Hooghoudts joined the company and successfully continued the family business. Under the leadership of son Ludolf Hooghoudt, lemonade syrups were successfully introduced, which are still very popular today. Since 1994 the fourth generation of the Hooghoudt family has been responsible for the fortunes of the family business.Under the leadership of Bert Hooghoudt the company's internal and external presentation was completely overhauled and the diverse portfolio now appeals to young and more mature customers. The Hooghoudt Dubbele Graanjenever The Hooghoudt Dubbele Graanjenever is one of the absolute classics in the Hooghoudt portfolio. The basis is the best Dutch rye and grain. After this has been processed into the famous Moutwijn (toll wine), it is double distilled with the addition of juniper and other ingredients such as wormwood, fruit peel and orange peel. To round off the taste, the Hooghoudt Dubbele Graanjenever is then briefly stored in oak barrels. The result is a very pure and complex genever with aromas of juniper, pepper and citrus fruits. If you don't want to drink the Dubbele Graanjenever neat, you can also enjoy it in a tasty combination with orange juice.
