Liquor distillery in the centre of Amsterdam. Founded in the 16th century, it's an amazing place to start a good night out.

Wynand Fockink founded his namesake distillery on this narrow alleyway off Dam Square in 1724 (and the building is even older, dating to 1679); some 70 varieties of jenever (Dutch gin), fruit brandy, and liqueur are still produced here today. In the small, beautifully preserved tasting tavern you can learn about—and more importantly, sample—both oude (old) and jonge (young) jenevers, as well as classic Dutch liqueurs like Bruidstranen (bride’s tears), an orange-flavored cordial with flakes of silver and 22-karat gold. Let the bartenders guide you on the traditional method: Bend down and slurp from the tulip-shaped glass—no hands allowed! You can also sign up for a one-hour tasting session.

Famous Dutch Jenever tastings. It's a very very small 'bar' with more than 100 kinds of liquiors. Made in the little fabrique next to the bar.

One of the nicest places in town to try an authentic dutch drink (Jenever). It has gotten touristy over the last few years, but it still a gem. (open only from 3pm untill 9PM
