After 5 days still no mail that order has been sent. No answer on mail, when delivery will approximately take place. Needed it for a special occasion, but don't think it'll arrive in time. A short inf... See more

One of my fav. products arrived as promised and very well packed to my hotel in AMS. A shortcoming though - is that you only ship within Netherlands - and it's rather remarkable that it should be so... See more

Package was good

Package was good, well packed en nice glass. I only missed an immediate information of the date of delivery. I had no idea when the package was due until I received the trackingcode, two days later. Otherwise everything was fine.

Happy customer with some questions

My order of tulip jenever glasses was filled very promptly and arrived faster than I expected. Oddly, the tracking link I received did not contain a shipment identification code; that made it less than helpful, but it did not matter since the shipment arrived so quickly. Another issue that I asked about, but have not received a reply to so far, is that Bols charged VAT on an order sent to outside the EU; such sales should be exempt from VAT.

First experience great, second time not!

We arrived on time and were informed that we were late. We were then rushed to the bar to make cocktails straight away without doing the tour first. The instructor rushed the whole class and explained how to make the cocktails to fast. It was obvious she wanted to finish her shift as soon as possible. Really not a great vibe! We felt completely rushed.

This was my second time doing the cocktail workshop the first time was great we done the tour first which really got us in the mood to make cocktails and we had a great instructor who took the time to explain each ingredient. She also had the time to have a laugh while teaching us.

My first experience at bols was great therefore I booked the experience again for my family visiting. I was very disappointed with the second experience.

Learning the Basics aka foot in the door

It was a lot of fun and very interesting to participate. The information is very interesting and valuable. Would be amazing if the presentation or presentation print out is provided after the course to be able to come back to it at any moment of time. But in general, it was a lot of fun and a lot of information into bartending. Simple, on point and no useless information.

Great time at the House of Bols

The museum was small but well organized and very instructive. It was a valuable immersion into the House of Bols' universe. Plus the free cocktail at the end is highly appreciable.

During the workshop, I would have appreciated to receive more tips and tricks on how to make a good cocktail instead of just being told what ingredients to put in the shaker. Nevertheless, the cocktail master was very interesting and knowledgeable, the cocktails were good and original, so I was very happy with this workshop.
