For the past decade KulovPresents have lent their marketing, branding and public relations skills to producing events for many arts and other not-for-profit organizations both in the U.S. and in Europe.
The Tea Festival is the brainchild of KulovPresent’s Founder & Creative Director, Kulov. He started the tea festival ten years ago by throwing small tea parties for his nieces around Valentine’s Day. Those tea parties eventually grew and Kulov used his experience in organizing fundraisers for various cultural organizations to open the event as a public festival. Continue Reading »
This story is a few weeks old, but it’s still pretty epic news.
As reported from the AP, “A federal judge on Friday issued an injunction preventing a rival liquor company from using a dripping wax seal on its tequilas sold in the United States, ending a seven year legal battle over the bottle topper.”
Maker’s Mark protected their trademark wax sealed bottle against London based liquor monolith Diageo. Diageo wanted to use a wax seal on a limited production (3,000-4,000 cases) of Cuervo Reserva tequila.
The judge in the case said Maker’s bottle topper “is a unique mark used in an unusual way to draw in the consumer.”
Time Magazine’s Joel Stein wrote a piece on his experiences exploring meaty cocktails with The Modern Mixologist, Tony Abou-Ganim, who apparently creates drinks using “elk-bouillon”.
According to Stein, “In this meat-happy era, when diners serve bacon doughnuts and every menu item comes with an option of adding chicken, one cannot expect to consume alcohol without killing an animal. Fat-washed cocktails, as drinks with meat-infused liquor are called, are popping up at lots of swanky bars.”
Ortega 120 is calling for tequila cocktail recipes from amateur mixologists. Recipes can be submitted online, and the creators of the top three submissions will prepare their cocktail on May 3 at Ortega 120 for a panel of judges including Mutineer Editor Alan Kropf, Joshua Lurie of Food GPS, Carole Dixon of Feast LA, Hadley Tomicki of Grub Street Los Angeles, and Ortega 120’s Demi Stevens. The winner will receive a $250 gift certificate to Ortega 120, have their recipe published in Mutineer Magazine, and have their drink added to the Ortega 120 cocktail list.
Submission Deadline: April 26, 2010 at 5PM Finalist Event: May 3, 2010 – Los Angeles, California
Not gonna lie, I dig seeing guys in a suit and a tie. Even just a button up shirt and a tie does it for me. Ties make people look sharp, they can come in all sorts of fun shapes and patterns and they make great gifts for guys when you are in a pinch. Heck, even I have been known to wear a tie from time to time.
I like all sorts of ties — funny ones, sports ones, serious ones. But I especially like geeky ones.
Combining the elements of art, science, and fashion, Stonehenge, Ltd. is the original creator of Molecular Expressions, a line of fashionable necktie collections from digital images made from photomicrographs (photographs taken with a microscope).
I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Stonehenge, Ltd. has a line of Cocktail Collection neckties. Continue Reading »
The folks over at Time Magazine have made a statement with their list of “Top 10 Bad Beverage Ideas”, inspired by doubt in Coca-Cola’s new “Vio” carbonated milk drink. The list is below, how did they do? Continue Reading »
In three minutes and thirty-six seconds, Infomania’s “Viral Video Film School” Episode 503 rips its way through wine vlog culture. The standard approach for video bloggers seems to be over-the-top enthusiasm and yelling at the camera. That and a strange attraction to the Vlog name “Wine Talk”. Crazy stuff.
