Al bij de eerste slok gebeurt er iets. Is dit écht alcoholvrij?! Wat een topproduct — ik voel me als ginliefhebber serieus genomen.
EN —Something happens at the first sip. Is this really alcohol-free?! What a remarkable product — as a gin lover, I feel taken seriously.

— a note on category
Niets bottles are non-alcoholic (≤0.0% ABV). Medals were awarded in non-alcoholic, “no & low,” or analogous categories of the cited competitions. Under EU 2019/787 the term “spirit” is reserved for ≥15% ABV beverages; we use it to describe craft, not classification.
— a note on attribution
Where an expression is shown as “selected,” the medal was awarded to one of the four Botaniets expressions. Trade and press receive per-SKU breakdowns on request. House range: Botaniets · Havaniets · Aperiniets.
