Event Overview

Hirsch Whiskey created their 2021 campaign to inspire their consumers to Chase their Horizons. Just as the founder A.H. Hirsch pushed the craft of whiskey into uncharted territories, this campaign invited partner influencers to explore their own horizons, bringing them along for a journey to inspire and experience unique activations that pair Hirsch with a taste of adventure.

The Hirsch Whiskey campaign combined craftsmanship, adventure and nature, a Mint Collective’s specialty - and team was ready to bring their vision come to life.

Joshua Tree was the epic setting for this adventure fueled product launch and influencer event and AutoCamp Joshua Tree, a Mint preferred Outdoor Hospitality partner, was home base.

From event production and execution, this three day event included Adventre into Joshua Tree National Park with a vintage EuroSport Land Rover drive experience, luxury accommodations in kitted out Airstreams, STUNNING dinners under the stars, Private pop up Mixology Workshop deep in the park paired with the perfect custom details every step of the way.

The Venue

Rooted in the timeless American tradition of hitting the road, AutoCamp’s

properties take everything that’s great about sleeping in wilderness and make it even better with impeccable design and luxury comfort.

Mint Collective has worked with AutoCamp from the very beginning and have had the pleasure of helping clients and groups design iconic, nature-centric experiences.

Mint believes access to nature revitalizes the spirit and reinvigorates the mind. It creates remarkable opportunities for fun and authentic interactions, and that is what is so great about the AutoCamp concept.

Unique retreats and offsite gatherings offer a break from the usual environment and routine. It becomes a crucial and revitalizing change of scenery that can help leadership teams, employees and thought leaders (really anyone) rejuvenate and experience a sense of coming back to themselves as people, capable of creativity and active collaboration.
