Bobby's Schiedam Dry Gin

Noah Williams — Incredible in a Cocktail

8/10

Bobby's transforms cocktails. The lemongrass and cubeb pepper give a G&T real excitement, and the malt wine depth works wonders in a Negroni. At 42% ABV the botanicals are vivid but not overwhelming.

Elena Morozova — A Genuinely Original Spirit

10/10

Bobby's Schiedam is unlike anything else. The Indonesian-Dutch botanical fusion — lemongrass, clove, cubeb pepper, coriander — over a rich malt wine base creates something of extraordinary character at 42%. The medium-long finish is sublime. A true original.

Isabella Rossi — Not Quite Gin, Not Quite Genever

7/10

Bobby's falls between two stools for me. The lemongrass and clove are lovely, but the malt wine richness at 42% makes it feel more like a genever than a gin. If you're expecting a classic dry gin, this will surprise you. Not unpleasantly, but still.
