Black Forest Distillers GmbH

Great to see where the wunderbar Monkey 47 gin is made. Marvelous experience at one of the most beautiful distilleries in Germany. The staff is super friendly and is more than happy to show you every step of the process.

Great products and tour! The tour guide did a great job. The facility is really neat to visit. Pretty scenery as in the mountains so that requires to drive some distance to make it there. Like previous reviews, you don't really feel very welcome though. It was raining a lot and they make you wait in front of a locked gate outside the property with a small sign "tour meeting point", no cover for rain. Then we went in and were packed in a cold open house for another 20 minutes. Maybe we could have waited in the store? At the end of the tour, we could taste however their credit card machine wouldn't work and we didn't have cash so we couldn't buy anything which was disappointing... wish they would have had an alternative for cards payments.

A visit to The Monkey, is a unique experience. The place and story is legendary, as well as the products! If you ever get a chance to visit this place, don't nesitate to go!

Best Gin north of the South Pole. Black Forest at it‘s best. Thank you for the amazing tour and really cool tasting. Will def come again. Merci

I love Monkey 47 but when I came here they were very unpleasant and I was not allowed to buy any gin. Don't come here, go to your local store instead.

Cool place, cool tour, even cooler drinks. All around amazing.

Mega experience! Mega Gin!

Unerwarteter Zwischenstopp mit köstlichem Ausgang Ich bin zufällig an der Black Forest Distillers vorbeigefahren da sie eh auf unserem Heimweg lag und habe spontan gehalten – zum Glück! Eigentlich gibt es dort keinen regulären Werksverkauf, aber eine sehr freundliche Dame hat für mich den Shop geöffnet und mir sogar eine kleine Verkostung angeboten. Der Monkey 47 ist einfach ein hervorragender Gin – aromatisch, fein abgestimmt, absolut besonders. Die Räumlichkeiten sind stilvoll und liebevoll gestaltet, der Empfang war herzlich. Erst durch meinen Besuch habe ich übrigens endlich verstanden, warum der Gin „Monkey 47“ heißt – denn Affen sind im Schwarzwald ja eher ungewöhnlich. Die Geschichte dahinter rundet das Erlebnis perfekt ab. Einziger Wermutstropfen: Es wäre wirklich schön, wenn es zu festen Zeiten einen Werksverkauf gäbe – bei dieser Qualität würde sich das definitiv lohnen. Trotzdem: ein großartiges Erlebnis und ein echter Geheimtipp für Gin-Liebhaber.
