A good third of the ingredients for this special gin come from the Black Forest and are definitely not what you would call typical gin flavourings! In total, 47 handpicked ingredients, prepared in extremely soft spring water from our own Black Forest source, give MONKEY 47, whose pièce de résistance is the use of local lingonberries as some sort of “secret weapon” typical to the Black Forest, its unrivalled complexity and quality, which is fully brought to bear through masterly distillation and maturing in traditional earthenware containers.

Whether with tonic, as a sling, martini, or gimlet, the unique and complex taste of Monkey 47 is an ideal basis for both classics and more eccentric cocktails. With the distinct and pure scent of juniper, a tangy and crisp citrus note, a sweet, floral aroma, a hint of peppery spices, subtle bitter fruit, and a deep and harmoniously balanced complexity with a tremendously racy finish!
