The audio guide is available in 5 languages: <strong>English, Dutch, French, German and Spanish.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The museum's rooms contain a number of different themes. First, there's an introduction to Luca Bols, Bols Liquers and Geni\u00e8vre.<\/p>\n<p>You then head for the Hall of Bowls, featuring a collection of Delft earthenware. These are replicas of special buildings and monuments in the Netherlands and are<strong> offered to KLM First and World Business Class passengers since 1952.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the most fascinating part of the tour is testing your sense of smell with dozens of colorful flavors. Then you're off to discover the ingredients that make up jenever.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, you'll pass through the history room and discover the traditional processes of percolation, maceration and distillation.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on your level of engagement with the interactive elements, the tour can last between 20 and 45 minutes. At the end, you can pick up your free cocktail at the Mirror bar, prepared by one of the bartenders. Please note that<strong> the number of seats in the bar is limited.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-780\" src=\"https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"House of Bols amsterdam\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/bonjouramsterdam.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/House-of-Bols-amsterdam.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc143720629\"><\/a><strong>House of Bols in Amsterdam to practice the art of mixology<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you're a fan of gin and cocktails, the House of Bols in Amsterdam is definitely worth a visit.
