Launched in the midst of COVID, when travel was nearly impossible, Eminente, the new Cuban rum brand, banked on accessible exoticism to spotlight its flagship product. They successively opened the Hotel Eminente, then Casa Eminente last February, a Cuban guest house in the heart of Paris, to expand the brand’s lifestyle experience. Committed to a responsible environmental approach, they have entrusted their decor to Selency, an online secondhand goods specialist. And the result has been a brand identity that resonated with an authentic hospitality experience. Discover a behind-the-scenes look at this unusual project.
