A 5 year old Dutch Genever/Jenevers gin, it's a single barrel Genever made with the finest malted barley, rye and corn. The mash is triple distilled after a week of fermentation. The result is a rich, intense spirit.
Hints of tangy juniper and fresh flowers, with a big whack of new make.
Gentle, oily delivery with notes of gherkins, creamy vanilla, cassia bark, orange zest and manuka honey.
Long finish with fresh flowers and spice.
I’m new to Jenever but I like this. It’s a strange combination of tastes like a mixture of gin and whiskey but with a sweetness more like rum or bourbon. Needs no ice, good to sip straight.
For readers of this and my fellow reviewers. This is not Gin. This is Jenever. So while very similar it is not the same. On top if you don't like the "whiskey" taste you should not buy Jenever that was riping in oak caskets as this is what gives it its color and part of the flavor. This brand of dutch gin (how jenever is also called) is actually very good and this particular one is hand checked which barrels and it is written on the label. For the people who did not like this I would recommend the same brand, but then try the "jonge jenever" instead which is much closer to Gin and by tradition this drink is cheaper, but thst means nothing. The quality is very very good and this drink is very smooth. I would recommend people who like tasting a different drink to try this one as this one is my favourite and to otherwise try one of the other less aged variations
Tastes like a whisky to me. Didn't like this at all. Passed it round friends and everyone thought it smelt and tasted like a whisky. Very very disappointed - I like gin not whisky and if I wanted whisky I'd have ordered whisky
Smooth and warm
Tastes like Whisky and I hate Whisky
