Oct 5, 2016 was a grand affair. It was the launch of the very first Sula Selections “Globe in a Glass” Roadshow 2016 at Yauatcha Terrace, No 1 Mg Mall.
It was a phenomenal soiree of a night with fine wines and spirits to rejoice the heart and move the soul. From champagnes to delicate wines, red to white, Janus brandy, Remy Martin and of course the full bouquet of Sula. Oh did I mention the cocktails…. Sigh… A headier night it cannot be… Of course the food partaking reminded me of the night of the zombies with everyone throwing themselves on the staff bearing the food 😀 Yauatcha of course is known for their food so no surprise there. 🙂

My favourites apart from the imported ones were the Sula Riesling and the Sula Brut Tropical.. Exquisite !!!
The band TSM Jazz Ensemble was soothing and provided the right ambience.
