Bokma is a historic Dutch brand renowned for its authentic Jenever, a traditional juniper-flavored liquor that is a precursor to modern gin. The brand's heritage dates back to 1826 when Freerk Bokma established the distillery in Leeuwarden, Netherlands. Bokma is famous for being the first to introduce 'Oude' (old) Genever in the distinctive square green bottle, which has since become an iconic symbol of the brand.
The specific product shown, 'De Vijf Jaren', refers to a grain jenever that has been aged for five years in oak barrels, resulting in a refined and complex flavor profile. Following a series of industry consolidations, the Bokma brand was acquired from Lucas Bols by the Dutch beverage group Marussia Beverages BV (formerly part of the Boomsma/Lucas Bols histories depending on specific era acquisitions). Today, it remains a staple of Dutch spirits culture, produced in the Netherlands to maintain its traditional quality standards.
