A very unusual gin, made in the Black Forest, just outside of Stuttgart in Germany. The distillery was founded by Wing Commander Montgomery Collins after retiring from the Royal Air Force. A reclusive and eccentric character he named his gin after a monkey that he sponsored at the Berlin zoo. Why the number 47? Well, there are a whopping 47 botanicals in this gin bottled at 47% ABV. Sometimes less is more - but definitely not in the case of Monkey 47.
More Details
The Black Forest, found in Germany's South Western regions, is famed for its fairy tales, with the impenteratable woodland said to inspire the tales of the Brothers Grimm. It's also celebrated for its fruit liqueurs, with the native morello cherries used to make kirsch – a type of local cherry brandy.
Monkey 47 honours this history, including native Black Forest fruits and herbs in the gin's botanical recipe. Combined with English distilling tradition, and a selection Asian botanicals, the result is a gin of astonishingly complexity and depth.
A worthy tribute to Max the Monkey!

Tasting notes
Nose
Rich and complex on the nose, but everything in balance. There’s zesty lime peel, fragrant raspberries, fresh-cut flowers and plenty of fresh pine cones. With time sweet orange notes develop.
Taste
There’s no subtlety here, orange sherbet tingles with a big bold herbaceous body. Sage, chopped mint and rosemary merge perfectly with a little juniper, while a little honeysuckle appears fleetingly.
