Description
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.
- Bonus Monkey 47 branded custom G&T Cup with each bottle of Monkey 47 Dry Gin purchased.
A little bit about the cup:
The stoneware vessel known as “The Becher” preserves the carbon dioxide content for longer to keep a Monkey and Tonic perfectly chilled. Each cup is hand stamped and unique. The cup is made in the pottery town of Ransbach-Baumbach, where Stephan Kilburg and his father keep the tradition of stoneware production alive in the August Kilburg & Söhne stoneware factory, which has already been in the family for seven generations. This is truly a unique piece and a must for any fan of Monkey 47 Dry Gin or any fan of good gin for that matter.
