just had a martini made with it at a two star michelin restaurant in manhattan saturday & LOVED it -so fun to learn more about it thanks!
Tried this a couple of days ago after a recommendation from a friend of mine, came here checking reviews to learn more about this Monkey 47. Definitely powerful stuff, the kind of drink that does burn you for quite some time in that first gulp, but in a pleasant way. Very rich taste, and very rich smell as well.
Found you from Tik Tok, learnt so much from gin from videos
Thanks so much! Really appreciate it, I’m working on some long format Gin Education content for CZcams very soon 😊
Some waste-less cocktails would be an awesome idea too 😍
Had a Negroni with Antica, Campari and Monkey 47 and was just delicious.
I bet that would be a good match too! So much flavour in there!
This one is my favorite in a dry martini, with dolin dry 5:1, single drop of orange bitters, straight up with a twist (squeezed on top).
I would like you to try Gray Whale my favorite Gin XD
I’ll try my best! We don’t have it here in Australia unfortunately but I can try and import a bottle 😬
I would love to try it, heard some great things!
Would like your comment on Canadian gin Ungava
I’ve never had gin but recently felt like getting into it and now I can say, “I’ve got a monkey on my back!” It’s so good on its own. Plus for the price it’s best to not loose its essence in a cocktail. Cheers!
That's exactly my experience - the flavors and the way they evolve on your tongue is unreal. I imagine a talented mixologist could do something really interesting with it, but I'd rather have a bit of it neat on ice.
@@Antaios632 Can’t agree more. If you ever want to change the experience buy a big silicone ice cube. Use it to freeze water but also you can freeze ginger ale, sprite, or orange juice. As it melts it brings out different flavors from gin. Cheers!
Can't believe how cheap Monkey 47 is in Germany, we really get ripped off here lol. It's still a pretty decent Gin, just a shame it only comes in a 500ml bottle. I do really like it, you would think the 47 botanicals would be too overpowering but it works really well.
Yeah I’m pretty shocked as to how well balanced they managed to make it with all those 47 botanicals, it’s pretty impressive stuff and definitely love the flavour profile!
Monkey 47 is my favorite gin. It takes quite a bite out of my wallet !
I live in the US and bought a bottle today 30, May 2022 and I payed $49.99 for 1000ml.
Wow that’s a really good deal! Never seen it that cheap before. Looks like they dropped the price a bit in the last year for you guys over in the US!
That's even cheaper than it is in Germany, 35$ for 500ml is a total ripoff
My state has ABC and it's $65
@@will5430 In Romania bought it for 38 euro direct from local distributor
HEY CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHY MY MONKEY 47 IS 29% ALCOHOL WHEN THE REVIEW SAYS 47% ALSO MY LAVEL IS RED WITH BLACK :c
Sounds like you’ve got the Monkey 47 Sloe gin, rather than the Monkey 47 Dry Gin. Sloe Gin is a traditional gin based liqueur made with, you guessed it, Sloe Berries. So it’s going to be sweeter, fruitier and lower abv than the gin in this video
This used to be an amazing gin … and will always have a place in my heart as it was one of the first ‚sophisticated‘ gins I stumbled upon …. But In recent years it was bought out by a different company and it has gone down hill … no longer in my top tier of gins …
what's in your top tier of gins? curious
You pay 35$ for 500ml in Germany and that is a total ripoff imo. The nikka Coffey gin is way more interesting for just 30$ for 700ml. Or the Berliner Brandstifter dry gin for 35$ . There are so many gins that are cheaper and better for me.
Definitely! Much better gins for the price these days, price aside, at least it tastes pretty good 😅
We pay 58 dollars for a 500 ml in the Bahamas.
@@dommy7077 The price atm is 29$ in Germany, it is probably not worth double the price. You can get really nice gin for 60bucks.
@@dalivanwyngarden3204 unfortunately alcohol is very expensive here. This would actually be considered premium here due to the price. What would you consider a nice gin?
@@dommy7077 There are many nice gins, also german gins. I really like Alsace Le Gin from France, the duke from Bavaria Germany or Nikka Coffey gin which is probably the most available one of them.
I tried one shot ... and it was one shot too much. Tasted nasty and smelled like a Christmas tree.
