Monkey 47 gin has been created 60 years ago and is currently available in over 50 countries on four continents. This brand takes its name from its composition: 47 handpicked plant ingredients prepared in a soft spring water from the Black Forest.

Wing commander Montgomery “Monty” Colins was posted in Berlin after World War II and became devoted to the rebuilding of its Zoo, through which he came to sponsor an egret monkey by the name of Max. He then moved to the northern Black Forest region where he opened a country guesthouse, “The Wild Monkey”. Nostalgic of British long-standing traditions, chief among them a good glass of gin, he developed a natural and regional basis recipe of Black Forest gin : juniper, pure spring water and a variety of special herbal ingredients.

"Conductor inside the Gin?" This was my first impression. In my experience, when I drink gin, the mixed aroma will soon spread like fog and sometimes it is too strong and sometimes leave uncomfortable impression. But this gin was quite different. As I mentioned, I felt one famous conductor was in the bottle and directed its aroma and taste.

Aroma: Quite nice and well-organized like well-known orchestra.
Tates; According to "Conductor", each sophisticated flavor appear in order in order not to confuse audience.

I thought this Gin was like "V2 missile" or "Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe" in Gin world. Those weapons went far ahead of United Nations.

This brilliant gin is really outstanding. Now I know it is no use explaining this gin. Please try to drink this gin at bars or buy this gin at amazon or other online shopping site.

Wonderful! Brilliant! Beautiful! Any words is not enough to explain this supreme gin. (^0^)
