“The Ultimate Whisky Company” was founded in 1994 when Han and Maurice van Wees started selecting their finest casks of Single Malt for bottling.
Every Ultimate bottling starts with tasting cask samples in the warehouse as well as in our own office to make sure the quality is up to Ultimate standards. And then it all comes down to years of experience and recognizing a good malt with the potential of becoming a good bottling. “The Ultimate” whiskies are bottled without chill filtration, with the intention to keep all the original flavours inside. True to our philosophy, we want to offer the Ultimate whisky with the best quality possible for an affordable and honest price.
“An honest and old fashioned quality single cask, single malt” according to the Van Wees standards, as they have been set by Han and Maurice van Wees so many years ago.
