| has gloss | eng: Plantiac is a 35% proof alcoholic drink, deep brown of colour. It is a kind of Dutch brandy (in Dutch: "Vieux"). It can be drunk pure or as part of a mix. It was first made in Bolsward (in The Netherlands) in 1870. Its inventor, Klaas Plantinga, first mixed its ingredients in his house next to the bakery where his wife Ytje worked. That house was the distillery for a long time to come. Since 1972, it has been produced by the UTO company in Schiedam, the Netherlands. For the past decade or so, Plantiac is being bottled about once per month. Plantiac originally used to be called "Plantinga Cognac" (Cognac is French brandy from the province of the same name). After the war, in the late 40s, a law was introduced that made it illegal to name a product cognac unless it was actually made in that area. |
