If you have a passion for history and mixology, Advocatuur Advocatuur Bar is a must-visit destination in Amsterdam, where tradition, creativity, and surprise collide in perfect harmony.
Once the grand Palace of Justice, the building now hosts one of the city’s most vibrant cocktail bars. Advocatuur embraces its storied past with a rebellious edge, offering house-distilled genever, inventive cocktails, and a uniquely energetic atmosphere.
At the heart of the experience is Rosewood Amsterdam’s renowned genever — a spirit woven into the city’s rich trading heritage. Bar Director Maroš Dzurus MAROŠ DZURUS , with over 20 years of expertise, masterfully combines knowledge and creativity to craft unforgettable drinks, bridging classic traditions with innovative mixology.
Guests are treated to tastings of young genever, aged genever, and the signature PROVO House-Made genever, each showcasing a distinctive expression of Dutch distilling. The journey ends with a traditional kopstut — a pairing of genever and b**r that delivers an authentic taste of Amsterdam’s spirited culture. Those seeking a deeper dive can join an exclusive tour of the distillery and its gleaming copper still.
The Cocktail Experience features a selection of signature drinks, among the highlights are Candy Store blended Roku Gin, Amàrico, coconut and elderflower cream, finished with Fever-Tree soda water; the Uprising combined Patrón Silver with smoked cherry and cocoa, gunpowder clarified milk, and ginger b**r; the Skandalus showcasing The Lost Explorer Espadín 8 with St-Germain, hot passion fruit and vanilla, topped with Billecart-Salmon Le Réserve; and the Propaganda paired Diplomatico Planas with fermented rhubarb, Lillet, and notes of jasmine and Timur pepper.
Each drink is beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and brimming with personality. To complement the cocktails, it’s worth savoring Indian-inspired bites cooked in the original tandoor oven, perfectly offsetting the bar’s bold flavors.
