Responsible Drinking at Lucas Bols

At bols.com we believe that enjoying cocktails should always go hand in hand with responsibility. As one of the world’s oldest distilled spirits houses, we take our role seriously in promoting awareness, transparency, and informed choices.

We believe responsible drinking aligns with maintaining a balanced and positive lifestyle for most adults who choose to drink. That is why we actively share knowledge, provide clear information, and support global industry standards that encourage moderation.

Why Responsible Drinking Matters

Alcohol can enrich social and culinary moments, but only when consumed mindfully. Responsible drinking means knowing what you drink, understanding your limits, and respecting both yourself and those around you.

Alcohol Units in All Our Cocktails

To help you make informed decisions, we display the alcohol units for every cocktail on our website.

What is an alcohol unit?

1 unit = 10 ml of pure alcohol

The number of units depends on the drink’s volume and ABV (Alcohol By Volume)

By listing units, we make it easier for you to understand how much alcohol you’re consuming and how it fits into your personal boundaries
