Thirsty tales

Christmas shopping with Tess

Tess Posthumus

Tess Posthumus doesn’t spend hours in the kitchen, but she does take care of the drinks. And she has a very specific place for that.

“I do my shopping at Sterk Amsterdam. Fortunately, you can also do that online these days if you don’t live in Amsterdam. Most people in Amsterdam know Sterk as a late-night shop, but they’re also true drinks specialists. The owners are incredibly kind people and very passionate. They make it their mission to stay up to date and have all kinds of unusual things. They can answer all your questions, and if you’re looking for that one obscure bottle, there’s a 99 percent chance they’ll have it here.”
