A complex gin, Monkey 47 is a great option to have on your shelf for cocktails. It’s in the shorter, booze-led cocktails where this gin really shines, like the Corpse Reviver No. 2. Just remember the advice from the Savoy Cocktail Book: “Four of these taken in swift succession will unrevive the corpse again.”
