MONKEY 47

Description

Monkey 47 Gin – A Bold and Complex Spirit Crafted with Precision

Monkey 47 is a premium German gin that stands out for its complexity, refinement, and distinctive flavor profile. Distilled in the Black Forest, Monkey 47 is a carefully crafted gin made from 47 botanicals, a unique blend that reflects both the traditional and adventurous spirit of gin-making. The gin’s name and its extensive list of botanicals pay homage to the origins of its creation, which was inspired by a British man, Montgomery Collins, who settled in Germany’s Black Forest and wanted to create a gin that captured the spirit of both the region and his adventurous nature.

The botanicals used in Monkey 47 include the usual gin staples like juniper, coriander, and citrus peel, but it also incorporates uncommon ingredients like lingonberries, elderflower, and spruce tips, which contribute to its distinct taste. What makes Monkey 47 particularly special is the meticulous distillation process: it is distilled in small batches in copper pot stills, allowing the delicate flavors to emerge and harmonize. After the distillation, the gin is aged in ceramic vessels to preserve its fresh character.
