Vacancies
Bus Whisky in Loosbroek is the only location on the European mainland that completes the full circle on one estate: from our own brewing barley in the field to a high-end distillery, an atmospheric restaurant, 28 hotel rooms and camper spots for true adventurers.

-
Unique concept: You work at a 'Single Estate' distillery: from the grain in the field to the gold in the glass.
-
International flair, Brabant down-to-earthness: International, high-end whisky, but we keep our clogs firmly planted in the Brabant sand.
-
Dynamic: No day is the same in our growing organisation.
-
Pioneering: The traditional whisky world is changing; help us build the 'New World' of whisky.
