Just saying, to each their own!

THE BUSKER UNBOXING 📦

Bold, wild, adventurous-this is The Busker, an Irish Whiskey whose Brand image plays all around the “cargo concept”. The Busker comes packed into wooden pallet boxes and is born to travel the world and explore every single unexpected corner of this planet! So, as many of you already know, Unboxing is a quite famous trend launched by Youtubers a while ago, a process in which you receive a package and open it, revealing its unknown content… thanks to this trend. many important Brands have obtained great results in terms of reach and numbers in general. In the same way, the Busker cargo boxes left Ireland to reach the most important bar counters of the world, surprising some of the top whiskey experts who met The Busker for the first time in their lives. Our boxes covered so many kilometers visiting Dublin, London, Tokyo and NY

DISARONNO BAR TALKS. 💬

The series was born from the idea of bringing together some of the most famous bartenders worldwide, comparing them through a double interview. A list of questions-some professional and others more personal-were asked to investigate their lives by a food and beverage influencer brought in as an interviewer. The result was highly intriguing, because it gave the audience the chance to get to know their beloved talents and, through different topics, directly compare their personalities that turned out to be always iconic and characteristic. Influencers and talents were chosen across the international scene.

TIA MARIA. GUESS THE COCKTAIL, GUESS THE CITY. 😈

Each cocktail is a blend of experience, research, ability and… culture. Last but not at all least, ingredients, which we can actually claim to be like a beautiful topping! The idea comes from the key concept that every single product coming from this or that place brings part of the place from where it originated with it, and the same happens with cocktails. So, let’s have a look at that (yes, that!) cocktail and let’s guess the city! We are quite sure you’ll guess ;).
