Tasting Notes

Nose

Intense and layered — juniper resin, lingonberry tartness, spruce, jasmine, a citrus wave of pomelo and makrut lime, backed by warm cinnamon and clove

Palate

Dense and textured with cranberry brightness, lavender, honeysuckle, cardamom heat, lemongrass, sage earthiness, and a persistent juniper backbone

Finish

Remarkably long, dry and peppery with lingonberry and spruce lingering alongside floral echoes

Expert Review

9/10

Monkey 47 packs forty-seven botanicals into a Contemporary gin of remarkable coherence, blending Black Forest spruce and lingonberry with Southeast Asian aromatics like makrut lime and lemongrass. Complex, precise, and worth every penny of its price tag.
