Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Dry Gin

Schwarzwald Dry Gin. Alcohol content is 47% ABV (94 proof). The base spirit is molasses-based neutral spirit. The gin is matured for three months in traditional earthenware containers, then proofed using soft local Black Forest spring water. It is left unfiltered to preserve aromatic oils. The recipe contains exactly 47 botanicals, including juniper, fresh cranberries (lingonberries), spruce shoots, bramble leaves, black-berried elder, angelica root, six distinct citrus peels (lemon, pomelo, bitter orange), grains of paradise, cubeb pepper, musk seed, cassia bark, and cloves. The appearance is clear and crystalline with noticeable texture due to being unfiltered. Packaging is a retro brown apothecary-style glass bottle with a natural cork closure held by a metal ring. No specific earthenware container details, maturation temperature, or individual botanical proportions are specified by the producer.
