Luxurious Ecotourism: Dominica’s Storm-Torn Jungle Bay Resort Reopens Bigger and Better Thanks to Foreign Investors-Turned-Citizens

Dubbed by the media as the 'Phoenix of Dominica', beloved Jungle Bay resort has finally reopened on June 30th, four years after closing down. The popular five-star development had previously operated for ten years before Storm Erika destroyed it in 2015. It has now relocated to the western coast of the small island of Dominica, in the Mourne Acouma village in Soufriere and has already welcomed its first guests. The island has made a remarkable recovery after Hurricane Maria made landfall in 2017 and has since gone on to 'build back better' largely using money coming from foreign investors also seeking second citizenship. Jungle Bay received full funding from Dominica's Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme through which global individuals and, at times, their immediate relatives, invested in Jungle Bay's shares and, after being thoroughly checked for integrity and due diligence, were honoured with the citizenship of Commonwealth of Dominica. The island's CBI model is considered exemplary, with experts from the Financial Times ranking it the...

Gucci banks on high-end gems for growth

Gucci, the luxury brand that powers most of parent Kering’s (PRTP.PA) profits, made its first steps in high-end jewelery on Tuesday with a dedicated store in Paris - part of its bid to expand its reach after a blowout fashion makeover.  Sales at the Italian label have grown at a breakneck pace since a turnaround under designer Alessandro Michele over the past three years, beating most industry rivals even as the rate of expansion slowed to 20 percent in the first quarter.  With its sights on one day overtaking peers Louis Vuitton, owned by Kering rival LVMH (LVMH.PA), or privately-held Chanel as the biggest luxury brand by revenue, Gucci is branching into new areas, including by recently rolling out cosmetics.  Its high-end jewelery venture will see it compete with heavyweights of that sector, including Richemont’s (CFR.S) Cartier and van Cleef & Arpels, with a specialized store on Paris’ historic Place Vendome.  Gucci, best known...

California’s Luxury Whiskey Brand

 Wolves Whiskey, a unique collision of luxury lifestyle and craft spirits.  Their first release is aptly titled, First Run. Here’s a look at what makes it so special, inside and out. “I wanted to sip something with my people at my house that was truly different, something you couldn’t find anywhere else,” says Jon Buscemi. “[Karakasevic] brought some special Rye to the table and blended a juice that is balanced and rich. He’s an artist.” What’s outside the glass is almost as stunning. Each bottle is wrapped in Italian sheepskin leather. It is hand cut, embossed, printed with UV light and affixed to the exterior by hand. The sturdy decanter is topped in maple wood cork.  “The idea for design was to not stray too far from what we do, since not all of us were proper whiskey drinkers by nature,” says James Bond. “We had to build it to live in something authentic...
