Heineken Opens the World to Cebu

Heineken, the world’s most international premium beer is now making its much awaited arrival to the Queen City of the South, Cebu and we couldn’t be more excited! 

Heineken Launch Party

The official launch event for Heineken was held on 6 April, 2018 at the Tinderbox, Morals and Malice, and championed the “Open Cebu” message, a spin- off from Heineken’s famous tagline of “Open Your World”.

This unique launch event featured one of Manila’s best DJ, DJ Euric, along with our very own Cebu DJs and Acts Carlisle and Friends, Fonzy and DJ Gino and Cathy Muto, who had the guests on their feet right till the end of the night.

The event was attended by a myriad of guests ranging from politicians to socialites, industry titans to F&B customers, each of whom were excited to be bringing this flagship product to the vibrant city of Cebu.

The surprise however came when Heineken, through their activation called “The Takeover”, allowed the crowd to be the DJ during different segments of the night. This segment drew a lot of excitement from the packed crowd, each of them cheering for their preferred song.

In bringing such a world-class spectacle to Cebu, Heineken stands by their belief that the world is packed with endless possibilities and experiences that it hopes to continue to bring to consumers in Cebu that can potentially enliven and thrill them.

The World’s Most International Premium Beer

Enjoyed in 192 countries the world over; Heineken is truly the world’s beer. Founded in Amsterdam in 1873, it has grown to encompass the globe, with its familiar green bottle and smooth, refreshing taste.

From the Netherlands to Brazil, South Africa to the Solomon Islands, Heineken is now proud and excited to have the opportunity to engage with Filipinos and provide them with a high quality beer.

Emphasis on Quality 

Since Heineken was founded it has been brewed with a passion for quality – every batch of beer put under rigorous quality checks so that consumers only get the best.

Everywhere in the world, Heineken is brewed with the same recipe, great care, high-quality ingredients and standardized process. Every bottle of Heineken is made with only 3 pure, natural ingredients; malted barley, water, hops.

For the after-party and entertainment at Azure Beach Club, renowned mixologist Ulysse Jouanneaud took over the bar, crafting cocktails with Bacardi, Don Papa, Cointreau, and Sula Brands. Chef Allan Barrios presented a dessert spread that included key lime pralines, vanilla bourbon truffles, honey coconut cryos, and tiny flower-potted bamboo shoots that turned out to be made of pistachio. These little works of art were planted alongside vibrant green foliage, smooth stones, and a faux fog effect that created a tropical rainforest diorama out of the dessert table.

The NUSTAR Ballroom, a magnificent venue at the NUSTAR Resort and Casino in Cebu, sets the stage for last night’s first-ever NUSTAR Ball.

Black was the color of night at the Zee table.

Glamorous guests from Manila and Cebu converged at the NUSTAR Ballroom, an exquisite venue within the NUSTAR Resort and Casino in Cebu. The evening unfolded with a seated 5-course dinner. The opulent feast started with Beetroot Salmon Gravlax, adorned with caper berries, caviar, set with delicate edible flowers; and a main course of Compressed Pork Belly with Crackling Skin and Baby Scallops. Another highlight was the auction of coveted items like Dior and YSL handbags, a limited-edition Bulgari watch, and an exclusive 2-night stay in Nustar’s opulent 3-bedroom villa—complete with a private pool and a dedicated butler. The charity evening benefited the Cameleon Association, an NGO based in Iloilo City created in 1997 that developed a global approach to act on the causes and effects of sexual violence against children.

Flying Tiger Copenhagen Lands in Cebu

By Joanna Cuenco

June 13 – Cebu City | Danish lifestyle brand Flying Tiger Copenhagen has landed in Cebu, opening its first branch in the Philippines outside Metro Manila at the upper ground floor of SM Seaside City.  

Since its first store in Copenhagen in 1995, Flying Tiger has aimed to share products that not only look good, but make people feel good too. There’s something for everyone aged one to 100: toys, art materials, homeware, party supplies, workout gear, travel essentials, fashion accessories, and more. There will be fresh drops at the store every three to four weeks, so there’s always something exciting to look forward to and share with family and friends. 

Product designs range from minimalist and “aesthetic” to cute and kitschy. Find lifestyle essentials like food storage and home organizers, tea towels and toothbrush holders, to some awesome things you didn’t know you needed, like a handheld sewing machine and a beach chair for your phone. 

Even though the 200+ square meter space is fully stocked with hundreds of items, the store layout and neat display make it such a joy to look at all of the things and make the shopping experience easy and enjoyable. Flying Tiger believes a richer life does not cost a fortune, so items start at only P30, or even lower with some special promos.

The store opened with a traditional Danish cake-cutting ceremony with Jet Tan, Flying Tiger Copenhagen Store Operations Manager of APAC Region; Gladhys Rodriguez, Merchandising Manager of Flying Tiger Copenhagen Philippines; Billi Jin Esguerra-Perez, Marketing Manager of Flying Tiger Copenhagen Philippines; and JB Tan, Mall Manager of SM Seaside City Cebu.
