Walking Through an Oscar Suite Gift Bag! Kathy Duliakas Shares the VIP Swag 411! part 2/3

The Oscar Suite that Kathy Duliakas presented was one the most amazing events because of an array of celebrities. However that’s not the only reason that made this event so special!. Duliakas featured a slew of new and established brands in the VIP gift bag. New brands are always interesting because this is one of the initial ways of getting seen in the media and getting public awareness. Established brands love it because they can show off new product launches and get more attention for their overall branding. Duliakas talked pre and post event about how she carefully curated the brands based on the type of products and their innovation. She won this round in trendspotting new brands to feature!

Kah® Tequila,
kah-tequila
Kah® Tequila was designed to pay reverence and honor to Mexico and its people. Its bottle and spirit are reflective of Day of the Dead®, the 3,000 year-old Meso-American ritual honoring deceased loved ones. KAH’s unique packaging, in turn, is inspired by traditional Calaveras used in Dia de los Muertos rituals to symbolize death and rebirth. The word KAH translates to “life” in the ancient Mayan language. Every bottle is an individual, hand-crafted work of art, no two bottles are the same. While the bottle captures that enduring spirit, so does the Tequila inside, as KAH’s distillers transform hand-selected 100% Blue agave into lively Blanco / Silver, Reposado and Añejo varieties that are both certified organic and Kosher. KAH also has a special Xtra Añejo and often releases special edition high proof numbered limited edition bottles.
