Tequila descendants took over the breathtaking shores of the country’s favorite summer getaway bringing nothing but loads of fun, excitement and adrenaline-pumping vibes with the Cuervo Nation Boracay. The three-day event bonded together tequila aficionados, including gorgeous models, celebrities and 50 delegates from different parts of the globe who joined in fun water sports such as wakeboarding, skimboarding and a “donut clinic” using the Towd (by Tribu) machine. There was also dodgeball, water gun fights and other wacky activities to unleash the competitive streak. Come nighttime, an all-out party gathered up the participants as well as the local tourists of the island. The music was courtesy of Groupo Tribale’s Latin-house-tribal mix and awesome percussion rhythms from DJ Elmer Dado and internationally acclaimed DJ Preach from Team Tiesto. Meanwhile, amazing mixing stunts were on display as the bartending exhibition shook things up side by side with the fire dancers’ performance. All in all, it was one big, national island party to remember.
