Monkey 47 is all the time advanced, however the brightness of the extra citruslike notes right here is unmistakable. A heady mixture of rosemary, juniper, lemon peel, and dusty forest ground on the nostril make you itch for a martini instantly. Related on the palate, however with a cleaner, clearer lemon observe that crisps up the natural edges of the gin properly. It’s much less overtly piney than another Monkey 47 expressions, although it turns into greener and greener because the end builds. Notes of tea leaf — maybe pushed by the Monarda — percolate late within the sport. Fortuitously there’s no sweetness right here as was seen within the 2019, simply contemporary herbs and citrus peel all the way in which.
