Description

Monkey 47 is a premium gin brand that is produced in the Black Forest region of Germany. The brand is named after the 47 botanicals that are used in the production of the gin, which includes a variety of herbs, fruits, and spices. The history of Monkey 47 dates back to the 1950s when a British RAF pilot named Montgomery Collins moved to the Black Forest region of Germany and started producing gin using local ingredients. The gin became popular among locals and eventually gained international recognition.

The production process of Monkey 47 gin is unique and involves the use of a traditional copper still. The botanicals are macerated in a neutral grain spirit for several days before being distilled in the copper still. The resulting distillate is then blended with water from the Black Forest and bottled at 47% ABV.

Monkey 47 gin has a complex flavour profile that is characterised by the use of a wide range of botanicals. The gin has a strong juniper flavour that is balanced by the use of citrus and floral notes. The gin also has a spicy finish that is attributed to the use of cinnamon, cardamom, and other spices.

Monkey 47 is a versatile gin that can be enjoyed on its own or used as a base for cocktails. The gin is particularly well-suited for classic gin cocktails such as the gin and tonic, martini, and negroni.

Overall, Monkey 47 is a premium gin brand that is known for its unique flavour profile and high-quality production process. The brand has gained a loyal following among gin enthusiasts and is a popular choice for those looking for a high-quality gin that is both complex and versatile.

Tasting notes

Monkey 47 is an exquisite gin that pushes the boundaries of how much and what type of flavor a gin can have. The 47 ingredients build off of each other rather than contradict and the unlikely combination of forest fruit and exotic tones of wildflowers and island spices (especially on the balanced and long, rich finish) create a heady beverage that reveals more upon every sip. Juniper is present, but there is so many other flavors present that it is not nearly as dominant as in many more traditional gins. This is truly one of the world’s most complex gins and although we're sure that it would make wonderful cocktails, one should try it by its self to appreciate the full spectrum of flavours.
