The inclusion of wild-harvested sloe berries, soaked in gin for several months, imparts deliciously complex flavor nuances and a deep ruby-red color to the Monkey 47 Sloe Gin. This slow maceration process allows for a perfect blend of flavors, creating a sublime balance between the natural sweetness of the fruit and the vibrant, unmistakable note of the traditional 47-botanical gin.
On the nose, Monkey 47 Sloe Gin exhibits lively almond aromas from the sloe drupes, accompanied by notes of pine and a hint of berries. On the palate, it starts off sweet, followed by a pleasant astringency, and finishes with a long, spiced aftertaste, featuring a smooth berry sensation.
Beautifully served neat with ice or as the base for sophisticated cocktails, Monkey 47 Sloe Gin is a must for gin enthusiasts looking for an intensely aromatic and visually captivating variant. It is ideal for special occasions or as a refined gift for connoisseurs. An artisanal expression that celebrates the richness of nature and German distilling craftsmanship.
