1. Stir together gin, bitters and vermouth in a large glass with lots of ice

The LANSERRING London team traveled to Austria at the beginning of July for our annual company retreat. We visited the picturesque region of Riegersburg and explored its beautiful surroundings. We were able to spend some quality time with our colleagues at the workshop, and learn about the exciting expansion plans.

This was then followed by a peaceful day of hiking around the rich green valley of Teichalm where we met the locals and enjoyed typical Austrian delicacies. Plenty of treats, team adventures and good memories, all contributed to our fantastic company retreat experience and reminded us of how special our team is!
