On Valentine’s Day, Don Julio tequila, in partnership with Mediterraneo restaurant in Kololo, turned things up a notch. If you thought Valentine’s Day was the usual; flowers and “two-tops”, leading global luxury tequila brand- Don Julio, changed that, spicing things up with an exotic experience.
Don Julio teamed up with Mediterraneo to host the ‘Love is in the air’ Dinner experience, which brought together guests that were looking for a transcendent Valentine’s Dinner.
It was an orchestra and opera dinner affair. The performers lineup had Turgut Armete, Zeynep Gunal, and Ugandan Latin Dance sensation- Valentino Kabenge, creating a fusion of fine dining and latin entertainment in one place.

The cocktail serves and bottle service of 1942, Anejo, and Reposado, emphasized Don Julio’s role as a leading brand in curating unique experiences for its consumers.
