Rustan's Couture Cocktails
Everything is coming up fashion! Fashion week is
happening all around the world, and in the local scene, high-end department
store Rustan's has recently launched their World Wide Wear campaign. To
highlight that event, they've partnered with Raffles and Fairmont Makati
for a couple of fashion-inspired cocktails!
The stylish spirits are specially concocted by the hotel's mixologists and bear the sartorial signature of Rustan's top fashion labels: Thomas Pink, Façonnable, Hackett, Natori, Patis Pamintuan Tesoro, Lady Rustan, and Monique Lhuillier.
My friends and I tried the 7 creations along with some of the Long Bar staples. Were they good? Here's what I can tell you, we were all smiling like a bunch of Cheshire cats {either from contentment or from being buzzed - great either way} by the end of the night. But seriously, these mixes were delicious! I liked the Red Fox and Belvedere Vodka the most.
Pink Champagne - a
cherry blossom and champagne spritz tribute to Monique Lhuillier
Belvedere Vodka - Menswear
tailoring meets bespoke beverages with the B&B bearing Façonnable's classic
French Riviera flavor
Thomas Pink's Red Fox - a
gin-based Bloody Mary which pays tribute to Thomas Pink
Lady Daiquiri - a
nod to the in-house brand, Lady Rustan
Oriental Bubbly - a
ginger-spiked cocktail stamped with Natori’s exotic flair
The London Bourbon - homage to Hackett's British roots
Boho Martini - inspired by Patis Pamintuan Tesoro for Rustan’s, featuring
the vibrant local flavor of calamansi
Enjoy a Couture Cocktail for Php 495++ and receive a World Wide Wear
passport, which offers discounts to luxury brands at Rustan’s Department Stores
as well as room and dining offers at Raffles and Fairmont Makati.

Thursday nights is Casa Noble Tequila night {until the end of November}! Three cocktails equal one free appetizer. You can choose from any of these: Nachos and Salsa, Ceviche, Quesadilla, Chile Rellenos, and Beef Fajita.
The sun-dried nuts are complimentary. Here's the fun part: true to the Raffles' custom, you can throw the peanut shells on the floor! It is encouraged, actually. See?
Getting responsibly {?} intoxicated is never fun without a few munchies; make that a few delicious munchies! Ultra-crisp chili and tamarind rubbed Pork Rinds and Calamari Moros y Christianos {black and white battered squid}.

Apart from the drinks and the food, what I like most about this place is the amazing service. It is something I appreciate a lot. Big thanks to the Long Bar staff! Sorry guys, I'm really bad with names.
