Duchess Cocktails, a Vancouver-based producer of premium bottled and canned cocktails, has announced a beverage partnership with Fairmont Chateau Whistler that features Duchess bottled cocktails in the hotel's Gold Bar and in-room minibars.
"We are thrilled to be partnering with a local supplier to realize our goal of an elevated beverage experience through our in-room minibar program. Duchess has worked with us to ensure we have products that are light, tasty, and easy to enjoy after a long day of travel or adventures here in Whistler. We look forward to continuing to enhance our food and beverage programs throughout the hotel with Duchess Cocktails," said Jack Broadhead, director of food & beverage at Fairmont Chateau Whistler.
Each in-room minibar at Fairmont Chateau Whistler will stock Duchess Cocktails' two flagship 12 per cent glass-bottled martinis: Lightly Sparkling Cosmopolitan and Lemon Drop.
"We're delighted to launch our partnership with the iconic Fairmont Chateau Whistler! It is such a pleasure to partner with Fairmont, a like-minded brand that is dedicated to delivering beautiful and memorable moments. Being able to pour yourself a delicious Cosmopolitan or Lemon Drop speaks to Fairmont's luxurious après-in-your-room experience. We look forward to continuing the partnership," says Olivia Lovenmark, founder and CEO of Duchess Cocktails.
