Everything you need to know about Bols Cocktail Experience Museum
A scene of the company’s history and achievements is The Bols Cocktail Experience in Amsterdam. The Bols House is not only a museum of brand history but also a place where visitors can touch and taste its production methods and ingredients.
The Bols Liquor Museum is located in the Museum Quarter in a rather unremarkable building: it is a modest three-story brick building in the traditional Dutch style. There is nothing left of the classic look of the Amsterdam mansion: the halls of the museum are made in modern style, the transparent glass windows are illuminated with colored lamps, and the interior uses an abundance of elements made of metal and polycarbonate.
The exhibition itself is a grand and interactive journey that engages the senses of the visitor and takes him to the world of cocktails, bartending, and liqueurs. The exhibition and experience is so unique that it won the Dutch Design Award in the museum category.
