Origins
In 1945, British Wing Commander Montgomery Collins of the Royal Air Force arrived in Berlin to help rebuild a war torn Germany. While volunteering at the Berlin Zoo, he befriended a monkey named Max. Though Collins would eventually leave Berlin for the magical beauty of the Black Forest, Max the monkey remained an inspirational force. Exploring the Black Forest’s rich bounty of botanicals, Collins was reminded of his childhood in India, where he was introduced to some of the world’s most exotic spices. Two distinct worlds of delicate flowers, aromatic herbs, robust spices and tangy citrus fruits, joined through the gin he created.
