It can be simple to be luxury. We fail to describe luxury as quiet, or simple not pretentious and loud. A great bottle of wine doesn’t have to cost $1000. And I’m sure this roast chicken in a modest bistro tastes like $1M. Luxury and its value is subjective, how much are you willing to pay for your most favorite glass of wine or roast chicken? It’s invaluable if you know its worth! #Luxury #Simplicity #Value #lvmh

The ice-cold Martini represents everything upscale and understated, which is at least in part why it continues to have a moment. As Martini-mania continues to unravel and new interpretations of the cocktail emerge, the Martini itself is shifting- from an expression of quiet luxury, to an indulgent showpiece (with a hefty price tag). #spirits #spiritsindustry

Proximo Spirits introduces the world’s first Cristalino tequila - Maestro Dobel Diamante - created by Juan Dobel, an 11th generation tequila maker. All Maestro Dobel tequilas go through a double distillation process to produce the purest tequila possible. Diamante is made with 100% Pure Agave, crafted using an exact multi-aged blend of Reposado, Añejo and Extra-Añejo tequilas. This exquisite blend then undergoes an artisanal and proprietary filtration process, removing the colour while preserving the woody characteristics in taste and aroma associated with a Reposado. What’s left is a world-class luxury tequila unmatched in complexity and smoothness. It truly is the North Star for tequilas when it comes to taste, craftsmanship and innovation. #Spirits #Tequila #Cristalino #WorldsFirst #MaestroDobel Lauren Justus Nicole de Waal Proximo Spirits

Luxury Tequila's New Frontier: Artisanal Innovation and Wine Barrel Magic 🍇🥃 Mexico's tequila industry is experiencing a luxury revolution. Premium tequilas are captivating global connoisseurs, transcending traditional perceptions with their exceptional quality and innovative flavors. A standout trend in this premium surge is the use of wine barrels for aging. Distilleries are embracing this creative approach, aging tequila in barrels that once held fine wines. This process infuses the tequila with subtle, complex flavors, marrying the robustness of agave with the delicate nuances of wine. The result? A tequila experience that's both familiar and refreshingly new, offering notes of fruit and spice alongside traditional agave richness. These tequilas are not just about taste; they're also visual and tactile delights. Elegant bottles and detailed labels reflect the sophistication of this new tequila era, combining tradition and modern artistry. This innovation in premium tequila is gaining international acclaim, particularly in the US, Europe, and Asia, redefining luxury in the spirits world. #TequilaRevolution #WineBarrelAging #ArtisanalSpirits #GlobalLuxury #tequila #mexicanculture #agave
