What: William Grant & Sons (WG&S) invites you to experience the 1887 Virtual Bar, live from your living room. Named after the year WGS was founded, 1887 Virtual Bar aims to give local bars affected by the closures a way to remain ‘open’ to fans, by hosting virtual guest shifts accompanied by a thematic menu from which consumers can make a donation to support their favourite bars by purchasing cocktail vouchers.

All donations will go directly to the respective bars, with WGS matching the donations dollar-for-dollar, in support of the local bartending community during these uncertain times.

Hosted by William Grant & Sons Brand Ambassador Kenneth Bandivas, the first virtual bar shift in Manila will feature Enzo Luna and Christina Soudji of Run Rabbit Run.
