Bobby's Schiedam Jenever (700ml)
An expression of Dutch Courage fuelled with Indonesian spirit including a spice-forward combination of ‘Schiedam’ gin botanicals like juniper, fennel seeds, coriander and rose hips combined with traditional Indonesian spices from grandfather Jacobus ‘Bobby’ Alfons’ Pinang Raci recipe. These include lemongrass, cloves, cinnamon, and cubeb peppers. Distilled from a malt base, there are no other additives or extractions. 38% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... Clear color. Aromas and flavors of orange oil, sweet barley mash, juniper berries, and anise with a satiny, crisp, dryish medium body and an elegant, medium-length finish with suggestions of orange marmalade, lemon pepper, rosemary, and witch hazel. Toasted bread and herbal spice followed by hints of fruit make for a well balanced Genever that would make a wide variety of cocktails. 87 points - tastings.com
