Bacardi GTR Global Head of Marketing, Ignacio Vazquez, explains the campaign strategy, \u201cThe history of the Chinese zodiac dates back at least 2000 years as an enduring pivotal element of Chinese New Year celebrations, not only in China but across the globe. The limited edition DEWAR\u2019S Year of the Dragon presentation with its interactive zodiac features makes an entertaining and memorable gift and a commemorative self-treat for whisky lovers. That\u2019s why this multi-region activation is not just targeting the key profile of Chinese consumers within China but also engaging them on their travels. It is also designed to engage travelers across North and Southeast Asia as they enjoy the special moments of the festival and its wider cultural appeal.<\/em><\/p>\n
