Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Gin

Clear in colour. The bouquet shows bold aromas of pine blossoms, exotic peppercorns, candied lemon and orange peels, sage, and sweet BBQ rub with a supple, dry-yet-fruity body and a zesty lavender candy, pepper, powdered sugar, and tangerine sorbet finish. An excellent and unique combination of vibrant citrus, floral, and herbal dimensions.

Incomparable complexity and quality by the use of 47 hand-graded vegetable ingredients, extremely soft Black Forest spring water as well as - and this is the whole point - fresh cranberries. In a masterly manner distilled and matured in traditional earthenware vessels. The eccentric formula of the original inventor of the Black Forest Dry Gin, Montgomery Collins, is the basis for Monkey 47. Its childhood as a diplomat son in Eastern Asia, its military career in the destroyed Berlin and the late adopted country in the Black Forest form the autobiographical background for a formula which represents a foolhardy combination from indigenous herbs and berries of the Black Forest as well as exotic botanicals from the Asian room.
