  Bols Genever Gin Amsterdam Holland 70 cl 42%

  Item no.: 2222786539-6017

  Long before gin existed, the Dutch brewed genever, and Bols has been distilling juniper since the 1600s in the heart of Amsterdam.

  Expert's description

  Bols Genever is a Dutch Genever from Lucas Bols, bottled at 42%.

  Lucas Bols is the world's oldest distilled spirits brand, with roots dating back to 1575, and the first written proof that Bols distilled juniper comes from a 1664 record.

  In 1820 Bols created a new genever recipe with a more accessible taste, which was already being shipped to America by 1823 and played an important role in the early cocktail culture of the USA.

  Genever is made by combining maltwine, a distillate of rye, corn and wheat that resembles an unaged whisky, with neutral grain spirit and a total of 22 botanicals including juniper.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  The nose is gentle with juniper, grain and malt, spiced with a hint of vanilla and a whisky-like character.

  Palate

  The palate is soft and complex, where delicate juniper meets the rich, grainy sweetness of maltwine with a hint of cherry.

  Finish

  The finish leaves a warmth towards the end with earthy, grassy notes.

  Tranquebar Colonial Gin 70 cl 45%

  Item no.: 2222786539-1005

  In 1616, Denmark founded the colony of Tranquebar on India's east coast, from where Danish merchant ships carried spices and tea back to Europe. Tranquebar Colonial Gin is built on a recipe said to have been enjoyed aboard those very ships.

  Expert's description

  Tranquebar Colonial Gin is a gin based on a historic recipe from the Danish colony of Tranquebar, bottled at 45%.

  The recipe stems from Jan De Willum's preserved archives, uniting classic European gin botanicals like juniper and citrus with exotic spices from the Far East, including cardamom, nutmeg, cinnamon and coriander - spices that were traded through the colony of Tranquebar itself.

  The Tranquebar Treaty of 1620 made the colony the headquarters of Danish India for the next 200 years, and the gin is a direct tribute to this chapter of Danish maritime history.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Warm spices like cardamom and nutmeg meet piney juniper and citrus peel.

  Palate

  The palate is spiced and complex, with cinnamon and coriander unfolding around a classic juniper base.

  Finish

  The finish is long and warm, with a last trace of nutmeg.
