Last night singer Brandy Norwood introduced the latest brandy with Stella Rosa in ATL! The event was held at the swanky JoJo’s Beloved Cocktail Lounge in Midtown. The evening included live music with Brandy, custom craft cocktails featuring Stella Rosa Brandy and curated by Brandy Norwood, chocolate pairings from CACAO Atlanta, light appetizers and, of course, time with the superstar herself. We also experienced a VIP tasting where we got to try the all-new “butter toffee” brandy then later, Brandy surprised us by popping out into the crowd lol! She looks beautiful in person and mingled with the small group then we made a toast to the new launch!
