| What to eat in Schiedam is a company with a local service area. | |
The jenever town against Rotterdam, with the tallest windmills in the world and more distilleries than anywhere else.
The mills
Five malt mills, built to catch wind above the warehouses. That makes them the tallest in the world, and several still turn.
Three hundred distilleries
That is how many stood here in the nineteenth century. A handful remain, but the tasting rooms and the Jenever Museum keep the history alive.
Kopstootje
Jenever beside a beer, the glass filled to the brim. In Schiedam brown cafés this is an ordinary order, not folklore.
Korenwijn
The heaviest style, at least fifty-one per cent malt wine and often oak aged. This is the bottle enthusiasts point to.
Where to look
The Lange Haven for cafés, the mills for tasting rooms, the centre for restaurants.
