Bobby's Schiedam Dry Gin
Genever 42% ABV ABV Herman Jansen Distillery, Schiedam
18 March 2026
More Genever Than Gin
The warm malty genever base dominates at 42% ABV. The lemongrass and clove are lovely but the overall character is firmly genever rather than gin. If you're expecting a dry gin, this will surprise you — not necessarily in a good way.

Lemongrass Freshness
The lemongrass freshness cuts through the warm malt wine base beautifully. Clove spice adds warmth, fennel seed contributes sweet anise, and at 42% the cubeb pepper heat is gentle. A genever with real personality.
