The ultimate PICKLED ONIONS Prima Qualität -
The Funky Monkey Genuine Schwarzwald Pickled Onions are freshly harvested silver skin onions "Stuttgarter Stubel" that are seasoned and pasteurised in a boiled, seasoned brew of aged apple vinegar and botanicals. The blend of spices in our brew contains a barrel aged vinegar specially created and produced for us. The Funky Monkey Genuine Schwarzwald Pickled Onions your perfect companion for a Gibson, a Fondue or simply a Raclette with a twist of Monkeyness.
The STORY
Remember, the Gibson is a cocktail made with gin and vermouth, and garnished with a pickled onion. Whether it's to be fed to the Monkey or not, a cocktail can only be as good as its ingredients. As we say in the Black Forest, one shouldn't underestimate an onion, which is why we've invited onion expert Gerhard Daumüller and the vinegar master Theo Berl to join our search for the ideal Pickled Onions.
THE ONE AND ONLY FUNKY MONKEY GENUINE SCHWARZWALD PICKLED ONIONS!
Our truly unique onion expert resides on the wonderful Filder Plain, at the foot of the Swabian Jura. When he's not busy working with wild herbs, leaf salads and edible flowers, Gerhard is also cultivating a special Gibson-friendly pickled onion exclusively for us - Allium ampeloprasum, or the aforementioned Stuttgarter Stubel. While the Stubel were growing, the next part in our quest - finding the mother of all vinegar -led us to the edge of the Black Forest. Near the French border, Theo Berl runs Germany's first ever vinegar brewery, now in its fourth generation. In large, oval-shaped wooden vats and barrels, the fruit vinegar was extracted from the apple must in a natural, traditional way, directly from the carefully preserved "mother of vinegar". As the saying goes: "Wie man den Acker bestellt, so trägt er" (you reap what you sow). We certainly did enough sowing, if you recall, so harvesting our onions meant that much more hard labour. In the pouring rain, we pulled one beautiful onion after another from the ground. After trying the first Gibson with our newest addition to the family, however, we know it was all worth it.
