In case you didn’t know, we are always on the hunt for new libations to try, taste, and blend. If you are anything like us, you probably enjoy a good gin. Gin is one of our favorite spirits, easy, strong, and smooth; it’s quite versatile. The good folks over at Monkey 47, a cult-favorite, award-winning gin, are back. They return to announce its coveted, limited batch of Distiller’s Cut will be available in the United States for the first time.
What is Distiller’s Cut, you might ask? Well, every Fall, Monkey 47 embarks on a quest for a 48th “Species Rara” ingredient to create a very special release batch of gin. This year the “secret” 48th botanical is Myristicae arillus, the seed covering of nutmeg – also known as Nutmeg Mace. This is what Distiller’s Cut entails. Nutmeg Mace, like nutmeg itself, has a resinous aroma and a slightly bitter taste. This comes out in Monkey 47’s incredible blend, offering a unique dose of flavor to match its unrivaled smoothness.
For a limited time, Monkey 47 Distiller’s Cut will be available for purchase in November in select markets in the U.S. and online at ReserveBar.com. Take a look at a few images of the special release below, and be sure to pick up yours asap. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more spirits, drink recipes, and more coming soon.
