Lucas Bols has been distilling fine spirits in Amsterdam since 1575, cementing its legacy as one of the world's oldest spirits brands. Genever 21 was crafted specifically to appeal to contemporary mixologists while honoring traditional Dutch distillation techniques.
Unlike modern London Dry gins that rely strictly on neutral spirit and juniper infusions, genever incorporates a generous portion of malt wine distilled from corn, rye, and wheat. This gives the spirit its characteristic rich texture and earthy depth.
Genever 21 strikes a balance between old-world heritage and modern mixology demands. Its lighter profile makes it an approachable entry point for those discovering the category for the very first time.
