Santa Ana Gin and Tatler Philippines come together to host an engaging and intimate affair that pays homage to the glorious 1920s and hopes for the best in the 2020s.
The Roaring Twenties may be known to be a period of vaudeville acts, fringe dresses, and delicious concoctions enjoyed in speakeasy bars in the West. But in the Philippines, we remember it also as the era where Art Deco defined the aesthetics of our art and architecture. For one night, friends and colleagues were gathered by Tatler Philippines to remember this glorious period in our history and enjoy the latest gin buzzing around Metro Manila.

From the makers of the renowned Don Papa Rum that hails from the Philippines' sugarcane capital comes a brand new gin label named after the crown jewel of social activities in 1920s Manila, the Santa Ana Cabaret. Bleeding Heart Spirits co-founders Monica and AJ Garcia graciously hosted a night of reverie with Tatler Philippines to let select guests try this fresh specialty liquor that is a celebration of the rich biodiversity of the Philippines.
Santa Ana Gin caters to the huge gin-drinking population of the country's market but offers premium quality at par with internationally renowned gin brands available today at the market. By working with botanicals locally sourced from a partner farm in Zambales, Bleeding Heart Spirits was able to produce a gin distinctly Filipino in aroma and taste.
It uses two local flowers, ylang-ylang and alpina, and two local citruses, calamansi and dalandan—evoking distinctive yet subtle flavours everyone can enjoy.
