    Zuidam do make a couple of whiskies, under the name ‘Millstone’. The American Oak elevated ones are quite close to bourbon.

    The main difference is the corn content. But I’ve never been too keen on the overly sweet corn taste.

      I do like corn-based spirits in general. The main reason I don’t like bourbon for neat/on the rocks drinking is that it’s too oaky for me, but that’s where Zuidam Oude Genever (unaged) comes in. I should probably try few moonshine-style spirits …

        Yeah, Zuidam in general make very solid spirits. But you were saying that you were looking for a Bourbon-like product, hence me suggesting the oaked Millstone -as the oakyness is present in most bourbons-.
