Tanqueray Gin, in partnership with the Nairobi Polo Club (NPC), welcomed the Lagos Polo Club (LPC) at an exclusive event held at the Gem Forest Hotel, Nairobi. The event dubbed the Chairman’s Cocktail served as a platform for the two teams to connect and celebrate their shared language of polo.
“It is a great honour to welcome the Lagos Polo Club back to Nairobi for the second edition of the Lagos Incoming Tour,” said Jean Nyawara Okech Head of Marketing Spirits Portfolio in East Africafor EABL . “As EABL, our support for the sport of polo goes beyond sponsorship. We believe in fostering community and camaraderie that makes the sport compelling not only for the players but also for the spectators. Hosting the team from Lagos is a privilege, and we are proud to help set the stage for a memorable tournament.“
Guests, including NPC Chairman Mr. Simon Muchene and Mr. Adeyemi Oreagba of LPC,
enjoyed an immersive tasting experience guided by Diageo Reserve Brand Ambassador
Wangari Mwangi. The gin serves were polo inspired cocktails that are served during the various polo tournaments and draw a parallel between the skill and discipline of polo and that of cocktail artistry.
For Tanqueray, the ongoing partnership is a strategic platform to engage with a discerning audience and demonstrate a long-term investment in the world of polo. By facilitating the engagement, the brand reaffirms its role as catalyst for meaningful connection.
Attendees including influencers, media personalities and Nairobi’s who-is-who were treated to EABL products and Gem Forest Hotel’s amazing menu offerings.
