Polish Vodka to me.
"our" genever (or jenever, same stem as "gin") indeed is distilled from grains (forgot which one), between 38%vol and 40%vol. Then flavoured with "jeneverbes" (juniperus , juniper berry) but of course one finds it with a lot of "other" flavours.
Sometimes it's an extracted flavour, sometimes the add plain fruit (or fruit juice) thus lowering the over-all alcohol percentage.
Look for "wortegemsen" (with lemon: the final product doesn't even have 30%vol of alcohol)
After all, it's not really the ALCOHOL giving its taste, is it?
Though a high % of alcohol can dissolve more "flavours" than water does. |
