FAQs
Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Dry Gin typically retails from €38 to €50 for a standard 50cl bottle at 47% ABV. Note that the standard bottle size is 500ml rather than the more common 700ml, which affects the value comparison. The Distiller's Cut annual limited release commands a higher premium. As a gin distilled from 47 botanicals sourced from the Black Forest region of Germany, the price reflects genuine complexity and limited production volume.
Yes. Monkey 47 is distilled from a grain based spirit in the Black Forest of Germany. The distillation process removes gluten proteins from the base spirit to below detectable levels. The 47 botanicals used in the infusion contain no gluten. Monkey 47 is considered gluten free and safe for individuals with gluten intolerance. As with all grain distilled spirits, individuals with clinically diagnosed coeliac disease are advised to consult a medical advisor.
