Sips & Sounds of The WhiskyX Miami
From Barrels to Beats: The WhiskyX Miami Crafts an Epic Symphony of Whisky and Music.
March 7th, 2024
The WhiskyX Experience in Miami was a captivating fusion of whiskey tasting, comforting culinary creations, and immersive entertainment, making it a must-visit for novice and mature whiskey enthusiasts alike. Nestled in the heart of Miami’s vibrant art district, Wynwood, the event surpassed the typical tasting experience, offering a unique multi-sensory journey through the world of whiskeys.
From the moment guests entered the venue, they were greeted by an ambiance that seamlessly blended sophistication with warmth. Despite its immense size and teeming with eager guests, the event felt like a small-town affair. With varying vendors from all across the country, guests were sure to have discovered at least one, if not several, forms of whiskey to enjoy. Each vendor warmly welcomed guests into their booths and chatted like long-lost friends while highlighting the nuanced aspects of their craftsmanship.
The whiskey selection at The WhiskyX Experience was nothing short of impressive. In its third year in Miami, the event offered more than 120 spirits and whiskeys to try. With a diverse array of top-shelf brands and artisanal distilleries, attendees could sample a wide range of whiskey styles, from smooth bourbons to sour mixes. Featured brands included FEW Spirits with a booth decked out in homey string lights, Wilderness Trail, Sagamore Spirit, The Busker Irish Whiskey, Bardstown Bourbon Company, and several others. Knowledgeable staff members were on hand to provide insights into each pour, guiding guests through the nuances of flavor, aroma, and aging process.
Beyond whiskey and food, the event offered an array of entertainment options designed to engage and entertain guests throughout the evening, with interactive exhibits and live music performances to start. Distinctive experiences included the opportunity for guests to visit the cigar lounge sponsored by CAO or indulge in a bit of luxurious pampering with a complimentary hair or beard trim. Even more intriguing, guests had the chance to enter a raffle to win a customized hat from Greeley Hat Works – the very same Hatmaker who outfitted the Western TV series Yellowstone.
After guests had consumed their fair share of whiskeys, they experienced the other highlight of the night – a live concert starring Charley Crockett. Focusing on a mixed genre of Blues, Roots, Americana, and Country, Crockett’s music appealed to the eclectic crowd of modern Miami folks and traditional country fans. Crockett was named the 2022 Artist of the Year and Best Country Artist at the Austin Music Awards, in addition to being nominated for artist, album, and song of the year at the 2023 Americana Music Awards. After witnessing his personable charisma and the band’s noteworthy (pun intended) skills, it’s no wonder crowds flocked to WhiskyX from all across the state.
A truly world-class event, The WhiskyX Experience in Miami was more than just a tasting event; it celebrated craftsmanship, culture, and community. Whether guests were seasoned whiskey connoisseurs or simply curious to explore the world of fine spirits, this immersive event promised an enriching and memorable journey that left a lasting impression.

Luli Fama Launches Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Swimwear Collection in Miami
Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.
August 20, 2026
Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.
South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.
The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.
On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.
Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection
Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.
Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.
The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.
We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.
Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.
It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.
Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami
There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.
In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.
A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.
Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.
Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.
The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.
Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall
Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.
The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.
Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.
Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar
Fashion is only part of the experience.
For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.
Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.
The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.
Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.
The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.
A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home
For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.
Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.
Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.
And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.
After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.
Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
