Malt wine richness, juniper, baked bread, anise, clove warmth, a whisper of hops and ginger

Full and malty with grain sweetness, assertive juniper, anise depth, ginger warmth, liquorice richness, and a rounded, almost whisky-like body
Finish
Long and warming with malt persistence, clove spice, juniper, and a dry ginger-hop close
Expert Review
7/10Before London Dry, before tonic, there was genever. Bols' version is malt-rich, juniper-forward, and a direct connection to gin's 17th-century Dutch origins.
