John aka Bar Monkey, has been working for Monkey Shoulder since 2017. He loves whisky cocktails, photography and a good party. He's usually looking for an excuse to bring the three together.
Before Monkey Shoulder, John worked in Poland for three years as a Scotch Whisky Ambassador where he learnt about their top class Polish hospitality, something that he has carried through into his role today.
He says his favourite drink is probably a Smokacola (that's Smokey Monkey, Woody Signature Coke and an orange wedge), ideally drunk in a field at a festival. He claims this is where he 'dreamt it up', clearly nobody had told him about Whisky and Coke before...
