Bobby’s Schiedam Dry Gin is a refined and adventurous gin that combines the rich tradition of Dutch distillation with the exotic flavors of Indonesian spices. Bobby’s Gin originates in the Netherlands, the heart of the classic gin tradition. In Schiedam – renowned as the birthplace of Dutch genever – traditional gin botanicals are carefully selected and blended with authentic Indonesian spices. This cross-pollination of cultures and flavors makes Bobby’s Gin unique and distinctive. Bobby’s Gin is crafted with a carefully chosen mix of botanicals such as juniper, coriander, fennel seeds, and rosehip, complemented by Indonesian spices including lemongrass, cloves, cinnamon, and cubeb pepper. By distilling these ingredients using traditional methods, the gin develops a rich and balanced flavor. The result is a harmonious fusion of fresh citrus, spicy notes, and floral accents, both elegant and complex.
Bobby’s Gin has an alcohol content of 42%, providing a robust yet balanced body, perfect to enjoy neat, with tonic, or in creative cocktails.

This gin is crystal clear, giving it an elegant appearance and making it the perfect base for both classic and modern gin cocktails. Bobby’s Gin opens with an aromatic burst of zesty citrus and refreshing lemongrass, followed by herbs such as coriander and the classic juniper. Subtle floral notes and a hint of orange blossom develop into a cool, menthol-like freshness, supported by delicate pepper and spice accents. On the palate, the gin combines fresh citrus, vibrant juniper, and a harmonious blend of Indonesian spices with a warm body of sweet orange, cloves, and cinnamon. The finish is smooth, fresh, and lightly peppery, with a long, lingering aftertaste. Bobby’s Gin pairs beautifully with refined dishes. Think fresh salads with citrus accents, grilled fish or white meat, and delicate Asian cuisine where the gin’s spicy and floral notes can shine. It is also a surprising match with light desserts featuring citrus or exotic fruit.
To fully enjoy the complex flavors of Bobby’s Gin, it is recommended to serve it lightly chilled, either neat or with a high-quality tonic. You can also add a slice of orange, a stalk of lemongrass, or a sprig of rosemary to accentuate the botanical nuances even further.

Description
Producer
Bobby’s Gin is a unique, artisanal Schiedam Dry Gin, inspired by the rich history and flavors of the Moluccan spice islands. The producers, grandsons Sebastiaan and David Alfons, have revived the family heritage of their grandfather Bobby Alfons. Bobby once emigrated from Naku on Ambon to the Netherlands and longed for the authentic flavors of his homeland. This passion for herbs and spices forms the core of Bobby’s Gin. With the help of their mother and aunt Betty, Sebastiaan and David reconstructed their grandfather’s traditional Pinang Raci recipe.
Bobby’s Gin is carefully produced in Schiedam, the heart of the Dutch genever tradition. By combining classical distillation techniques with unique Indonesian spices, it creates a gin that is both authentic and innovative. The producers emphasize quality, family history, and respect for the craftsmanship of genever distillation.
