And let ush go back to our brandewyn, and hollandsche genever. |
Now Hans was pouring out equal measures of apple brandy, apple wine and old genever laced with amaretto and juniper seeds to the very brim of my glass. |
Genever, Holland's version of gin, is often distilled from malted grain mash similar to that used for whisky. |
He called it jenever or genever, after the French world for juniper, genievre. |
While I sample a Heineken, an old genever or two and a portion of marinated herring, she is busy ransacking the airport shops for free samples. |
The English fell in love with the juniper-infused Dutch spirit genever in the late 17th century, which paved the way for the more potent, dry British gins. |
