What initially started out completely innocently as a hobby of Tom Genbrugge and Goderic Van den Brande quickly turned into a passion and led to the founding of The Holy Spiritus BV in 2018. So unsuspecting honey & fruit drink lovers, be warned. Despite this mild warning, are you still up for a refreshing and fruity adventure?
Cider, distillates, mead and liqueurs
From the former Johannes de Doper Church in Sint Jansteen Hulst Flanders on the border region of the Netherlands and Belgium, Tom Genbrugge and Goderic Van den Brande brew and distill cider, distillates, mead and liqueurs. All drinks are unique creations and belong to the absolute 'crème de la crème'. According to some, one sip is already enlightening.
