One of Atlanta’s pioneer marketing companies, Insight Marketing brought class and elegance to Park Tavern for a lovely night of great Jazz music mixed with great people and great drinks. The beautiful event was the perfect example of a classy chic experience at it’s best. The event was a great success mainly do to the wonderful sponsors that came out. Royal Cigars, Gold Peak Tea, GMCVB & ABFF.
Royal Cigars had a special cigar smoking section designated for the had made cigars that were made at request. Gold Peak Tea had a display that showcased their signature tea. I’d have to say the Green Tea was my favorite of the night.
