The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Anis del Mono


Old signs of the famous spanish liquor Anis del Mono. [ Del Mono anisette is an anis-anisette from Spain with a particular story. The Catalan business man Vicente Bosch owned an anisette distillery and various merchant vessels. In one of voyages, they brought him a monkey from America that later lived in the distillery. By the end of the XIX century that distillery was known as "the distillery of the monkey" and their anis-anisette as "anis-anisette of the monkey". Some time later, they decided to put a picture of the body of the monkey with the face of Vicente Bosch as the logo on the bottle. Del Mono is considered to be the finest anis-anisette from Spain, is a very sweet, colorless, liquor made from anise seed and tasting of licorice, is sweeter than most anise-flavored liquors and has an intense and pleasing aroma ]
