It was a pleasure to attend the official launch of Blue Nun 24K Gold Champagne at the Civic Centre, Lagos, Nigeria, on November 27th, 2019. It was a successful event, and the organization was fantastic. A broad public came to experience the Blue Nun to the particular delight of the wine-loving community. Fermented in the vineyards of the romantic Rhine in Germany since 1857, Blue Nun wines have set new rules to the winemaking game by mulling classic, and luxury gold flaked wines distilled in Champagne bottles that speak royalty and fun to create those special golden moments worth living for. And for the first time, the Blue Nun experience is making its debut to the African continent, beginning in Nigeria.
In attendance at the launch were brand executives, stakeholders in the Nigerian beverage industry, brand ambassadors, celebrities from all walks of the Nigerian creative industry, and other members of the creme de la crème. They could not contain their excitement and satisfaction with the new, refreshing, and classy taste of Blue Nun that lingered on their palate buds. Speaking during the launch, Emmanuel Odiboh, the Business Development Manager of COWAS International Trading Ltd, the exclusive importer, and distributor of Blue Nun in Nigeria, describes it as a wine with a classic taste and a legendary history. “Today, we are officially launching the Blue Nun brand here in Nigeria. This is a history that is rich for well over 150 years” he said.
Burak Tertemiz, Export Manager of Franz Wilhelm Langguth Erben, makers of Blue Nun re-assured the delightful guests of the mission of the brand in Nigeria and how they intend to become a part of the culture.“Our objective here in Nigeria is to build up an organic and long term oriented partnership with consumers.”
Blue Nun is ready to provide Nigerians with a variety of options to suit their taste buds. Some of these are the Rose 24K Edition, Blue Nun Silver Edition (non-Alcoholic sparkling wine), Authentic White wines, and Medinet French Wines. For over 150 years, Blue Nun’s 24K Gold Edition has not only proved to be the most preferred gold-flaked wine but has also been an object of admiration at global events like the Bruno Mars 24K Magic Tour, Golden Globe Awards, and the Grammy Awards. Since its official launch in Nigeria, the award-winning German and ageless sparkling wine brand has made it a goal to bring sparkles and class to weddings and similar celebrations in the country. In the future, the brand also intends to enter into the French Caribbean market, which is promising as well. Globally, the Blue Nun Experience is exhilarating and extraordinary. But you still need to have your own.
