The Sylvius Gin is distilled, macerated, bottled and labelled by a small team
under the supervision of Master Distiller Justus Walop at the distillery in
Schiedam.The name of this gin comes from the physician Dr. Franciscus Sylvius,
who developed a medicine from an elixir with juniper berries against
gastro-intestinal complaints.

The grain used is traditionally ground in a windmill and after 4 weeks of
maceration, lavender and star anise are added separately and the gin is bottled.
