Bobby’s Schiedam
Bobby’s Schiedam Dry Gin is born in the heart of Schiedam, among windmills and canals that tell the Dutch distilling tradition. Bobby’s Distillery is the result of Sebastiaan Alfons’s vision, who revived the recipe of his great-grandfather Jacobus “Bobby” Alfons, originally from Indonesia. In the 1950s, Bobby fell in love with Dutch Jenever, customizing it with Oriental herbs and spices to recreate the scents of his homeland. From this union came, in 2012, through a collaboration with Herman Jansen, the last representative of seven generations of master distillers, a gin that blends East and West in a unique balance.
Bobby’s Schiedam gins are handcrafted: each botanical is distilled separately to preserve its aromatic purity. Beyond the classic juniper, lemongrass, cinnamon, rosehip, fennel, and cubeb pepper stand out, offering floral, citrus, and spicy notes. On the nose, exotic and balsamic tones emerge, while the palate alternates sweet and fresh nuances, ending with a long and persistent finish, a hallmark of authentic craftsmanship.
The bottle, inspired by the traditional Dutch “kruik” and decorated with Indonesian patterns, symbolizes a story of memory, family, and distant roots. A premium gin that celebrates heritage and discovery, perfect for a refined Gin & Tonic or travel-inspired cocktails.
Available on Vino45, the online boutique for fine spirits and artisanal gins, Bobby’s Schiedam Dry Gin offers an authentic sensory experience. Discover the meeting of Dutch tradition and Oriental soul, and follow a flavor that speaks of distance through aroma.
