Tourist Attractions

The House of Bols is a haven for aspiring bartenders, or anyone who wants to go and enjoy a great cocktail and get behind the scenes to know exactly how it is prepared.

Who is Lucas Bols The House of Bols is derived from Lucas Bols, the world's first and oldest distilled brand, which dates all the way back to 1575. Come here, and experience the thrill of observing how the perfect cocktail is made, and try your hand at the famous bartending flair, which combines the subtle nuances of bartending with perfect skills in juggling, mixing and entertaining.

Why visit the House of Bols

In the House of Bols, you can receive a self-guided tour through a plethora of aromas, tastes, images, films and sounds. With revolutionary aromas and flavor experiences, the House of Bols has come across as a one-of-a-kind exhibition.

Features

With different venues such as the Genever room, which showcases Bol's best ever Genever, and the trendy World of Cocktails lounge, which, as the name suggests, deals in producing the best cocktails ever, the House of Bols is truly an experience to cherish.

Additionally, there is also a Hall of Taste, which lets you sample the finest cocktails and know more about what really defines taste. At the end of the House of Bols tour, you will be offered a free cocktail of your choice, which is then professionally mixed by one of their expert bartenders.
