Gin, history & conviviality
Come intern at Secret Spirits! We make spirits based on historical stories - it started in 2018 in Leiden with Goeie Mie gin, named after "the Leiden Poisoner" who in the late 19th century went down in history as Holland's greatest serial killer after it turned out she poisoned 100 fellow townsfolk with arsenic. We are currently busy developing a 0.0 version, rums based on the story of double spy Mata Hari and much more. The fusion of history & conviviality is very important - the story is reflected in the ingredients, so are the word jokes & marketing strategy.

We work on drinks with a mission: a cool historical story, but also in our ingredients. For example, our Goeie Mie gin is entirely organic, and we source bottles, labels and all our wares from europe.
