Bobby's Schiedam Dry Gin, which was created in 2014 by the descendants of
Indonesian Jacobus Alfons (known as Bobby) in collaboration with renowned
jenever producer Herman Jansen, is based on a traditional Indonesian recipe that
has been reinterpreted with modern know-how. The gin uniquely combines the
diversity of flavors of Indonesia with the craftsmanship of Schiedam, a Dutch
city known for its long tradition of spirits production.

The recipe includes a careful selection of botanicals, including cloves,
coriander seeds, lemongrass, cubeb pepper, juniper, cinnamon, fennel seeds and
rosehip, which provide a complex and balanced flavor profile. Each botanical is
distilled individually in order to optimally preserve the characteristic aromas.
The individual distillates are then blended with great care to achieve a
harmonious balance of spicy, fresh and floral notes.



The use of lemongrass and cubeb pepper gives the gin an exotic freshness, while
the cloves and cinnamon provide a pleasant warmth. This combination makes
Bobby's Schiedam Dry Gin a tribute to the cultural roots of Bobby Alfons and an
innovative addition to the world of gin.
