ST. ALi in Manila

We gave Melbourne coffee culture a Manila kick

One of Melbourne’s pioneers in specialty coffee, ST. ALi has found a home in the Philippines. This launch was an invitation to explore Australia’s prominent coffee culture by giving it a warm, Filipino welcome.

We aimed to create an experience with the Ceremony, an omakase as a celebration to enjoy coffee in ST. ALi's new home.

We focused on curating an experience.

Beginning with introductory kits for guests and teasers for social media that gave coffee enthusiasts a taste for what’s to come. 

We gathered social tastemakers and welcomed them with the Ceremony, a sensorial omakase focusing on sight and sound, not just taste. 

Did we mention we got a jeepney for the ‘gram, too?
