We’ve been off adventuring, on a VIP trip to the Black Forest in Germany, brand home of Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Dry Gin.

Monkey 47 is premium batch-distilled and handcrafted gin that fuses British traditions, the spices of India, and the purity and originality of the Black Forest with masterly craftsmanship. In total, 47 handpicked plant ingredients prepared in extremely soft spring water from the Black Forest are what make Monkey 47 so special.

We took a handful of influencers to visit the distillery and learn all about their sustainable ethos; where they aim to only use local ingredients within a 47km radius. Are you spotting a theme here?

We also learnt how to make our own gin and Wiener Schnitzel, then proceeded to get very merry. Monkey 47 is 47% ABV after all…

We were of course revived the next morning, with a refreshing dip in the hotel’s infinity pool, followed by a visit to a rather spooky haunted hotel.

All in all, we had a thoroughly wunderbar time…
