The Singleton’s Big Meeting Blends Whisky, Food and Music in Kampala Lifestyle Experience

What the report says

Nile Post reported that The Singleton held its latest Big Meeting at Thrones Bar & Lounge in Kampala, bringing together whisky drinkers, food lovers and music fans for a Sunday lifestyle event that closed out July. The monthly gathering combined cocktails, meals, conversation and entertainment, with guests spending the afternoon socialising before the event shifted into a livelier evening programme.

According to the report, attendees took part in interactive cocktail-making sessions led by mixologists, who demonstrated different ways to prepare drinks using The Singleton. Guests also sampled food and moved between cocktail stations, while others used the occasion to network, relax and reconnect in a casual setting. Nile Post said the event drew young professionals, creatives and lifestyle enthusiasts.

The Singleton Brand Manager Simon Lapyem was cited as saying the Big Meeting has developed from a simple social event into a platform for shared experiences. He described the format as reflecting the brand’s emphasis on bringing people together through food, music and memorable social moments, while also showing the whisky’s versatility in cocktails.

Entertainment was provided by Kampala DJs playing soulful music, Afro-house, Amapiano and Afrobeats, the report said. The event highlights a broader trend in urban lifestyle marketing, where beverage brands increasingly pair tastings with food, music and social networking to reach consumers beyond traditional bar or retail settings.
