There’s a Tanduay Cocktail This Valentine’s Day to Express Just How You Feel
Preference for premium rums and customization is a growing trend, with consumers favoring personalizing their drinking experience.
Tanduay Senior Brand Manager and International Business Development Manager Marc Ngo said that the shift is led by the Generation Z market, who want more quality spirits, value individuality, and consider their choices as part of their self-expression.
“They are willing to explore and don’t want their drinks just handed to them. Preference for premium rums and customization are playing a big role in the growth of the cocktail segment,” he shared.
Adding a personal touch to a drink or a dish, after all, makes it more special for the one making it and for the ones they are preparing them for.
“We are sharing some of the cocktail recipes we developed along with expert mixologists to give people ideas on what cocktails to make this Valentine’s Day or for any other occasion. They are featured in our book, Cocktail Culture,” Ngo said.
The cocktails are infused with the brand’s award-winning products, rums that have gained accolades from different international organizations and competitions.
“The Tanduay rums give these cocktails a more refined and premium flavor,” Ngo said.
