Aventura, FL – November 13, 2021 – Brugal 1888, a premium rum produced in the Dominican Republic, hosted an intimate tasting event celebrating its second La Ventanita location at the upscale Aventura Mall 

Guests lounged around the sleek pop-up featuring blue and gold décor while chatting with Brugal 1888 ambassador Gabriel Urrutia and sipping on craft cocktails prepared by Miami-local guest bartender, Willy Estrada of Joker Bartender. Willy served The Palmchat – a surprise specialty drink that honors the Dominican Republic’s national bird – blending Brugal 1888, carrot, ginger, orange, lime, oregano and Ancho Reyes chile liqueur. Two Brugal 1888 staples were also available for guests to sip including Don Nano’s Favourite with Brugal 1888 and a coconut water ice sphere, and La Ventanita, a Brugal 1888 and coffee-infused cocktail. Guests also savored boozy ice cream by Aubi & Ramsa as well as delicious Guava & Cheese and Picadillo & Plantain pastelitos, while relaxing around the lounge area chatting and playing dominos. 

La Ventanita will make two additional stops in top Miami neighborhoods through early 2022, including a pop-up during Art Basel week in collaboration with notable artist Cesar Menchaca at Natui Grind Bodega at the Nautilus Hotel.
