About Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Dry Gin

Monkey 47 is ride-or-die for gin lovers who crave something just a little bit different. This modern taste hails from Germany's Black Forest. It infuses the classic juniper-forward style of most gins with an aromatic blend of 47 different botanicals for a distinctive, multi-layered gin experience.

"... as a rare treat I highly recommend this gin..." - Aaron Knoll 

Tasting Notes

Recommended By

Selected as the recommended spirit by Keli Rivers to pair with Shaker & Spoon’s cocktail.

She recommends this German bombshell due to its high content of aromatic lingonberries and floral lavender, not to mention the hand-peeled lemon and grapefruit, which pair so well with the cocktails in this box. Why color with only two or three crayons, Keli says, when you can use the whole rainbow of tastes!

Production Notes

It starts with a love for London dry gin made from a unique molasses base, adds regional plant ingredients and exotic Indian spices of the highest quality and mixes them with centuries of German distilling expertise. The result is a master-quality gin of complexity and harmony unlike any other. While most gins use 12 botanicals or fewer, Monkey 47 gin's blend is meticulously crafted with 47 different botanicals, like lingonberries, hand-peeled citrus fruits, herbs, flowers and spices.  It is produced in batches using traditional distilling methods. Here's what  has to say.
