Jenever (English: /dʒəˈniːvər/,[1]Dutch:[jəˈneːvər]ⓘ), also known as Hollands, genever, genièvre, peket, or sometimes as Dutch gin (archaic: Holland gin[2] or Geneva gin), is the juniper-flavoured traditional liquor in the Netherlands, Belgium and adjoining areas in northern France and northwestern Germany. As an EU and UK Protected Designation of Origin the use of the term jenever and its soundalikes can only be used if the product is made according to the specifications in Belgium, the Netherlands, two northern French departments and two German federal states. Gin was developed in Britain after introduction of jenever to the island.[3]
