 Miami, FL,  – Ultra-luxury wine and spirits purveyor Prodiguer Brands, which privately develops and markets many of the world’s finest, award-winning wines and spirits, offers a very special Champagne. Maurice VendĂ´me is now exclusively available in the United States (and in select LCBO’s and liquor stores in Ontario and Canada).
This offering furthers the company’s extraordinary and revered portfolio of premium ultra-grade adult beverage brands specifically tailored for the global luxury market to meet evolving consumer desires and tastes. What better way to celebrate New Year’s Eve?
Hand-picked, sorted and pressed within 24 hours Liqueur de dosage: Chardonnay wine with melted cane sugar at 12 g/liter, this champagne then rests for a further four months after disgorgement, resulting in a luxury aroma, taste, body, and finish
Formats: 75cl and Magnum 1.5l – larger sizes by special order
A Voraciously Vetted Vodka Also in the Prodiguer Brands’ preeminent portfolio is JULIET Immaculate Vodka, which is the world’s first “Immaculate”-graded vodka—ranking it above other premium, super-premium and even ultra-premium brands. Notably, this “Immaculate” rank was actually incepted by Prodiguer Brands, itself, as was required to aptly classify this caliber of vodka, and is a grade now recognized and accepted by industry professionals worldwide.
Upon its official launch in Monte Carlo, Monaco in 2014 during the prestigious, Formula One Grand Prix weekend at the exclusive Ermanno Palace Penthouse, this luxury vodka subsequently appeared at a multitude of A-list events in key regions around the world, including New York City, Barcelona, Paris, Sweden and London. At that time, the brand released a range of Collector’s Edition bottles featuring artwork from renowned New York City based artist, Sue Tsai, based around the F1 and the Brazil World Cup 2014.
Prodiguer Brands expressly separated JULIET from competitors by creating a vodka using a boutique production process to ensure the highest quality vodka that boasts seven distinct unique selling propositions. For one, the vodka weighs in at 43% alcohol volume (is 86 proof), and is only distilled a single time. As the vodka is handcrafted in small batches and great care is taken to prevent impurities from entering at any point in the process, the result is an impeccably pure vodka that does not need to be distilled multiple times. In addition, the vodka is gluten free as, by using high quality sugar beet that the brand ferments in-house, gluten is avoided entirely. The sweetness of the sugar beet also levels out the strong 43% alcohol volume, leaving pleasant smooth vanilla notes. Moreover, the vodka does not require any additional filtration as it is purified in copper pot stills during the distillation process and, packaging-wise, it uses wood top natural corks and tin foil capsules to exemplify the brand’s approach to using natural, non-toxic and renewable materials. JULIET Immaculate Vodka is 100% British, created at its own dedicated distillery based in the South of England, United Kingdom.

Vasaro Swimwear, the biggest game-changing swimwear brand since Beach Bunny Swimwear’s emergence in 2004, took center stage at Miami Swim Week with its highly anticipated latest collection. Hosted by Planet Fashion, the event took place on June 10th at Hyde Beach, SLS South Beach, bringing a breath of fresh air to the Miami Heat with Vasaro Swimwear’s Deep-V bikini unveiling.
After showing two monokinis, the first bikini model strutted down the runway, then turned to walk back, but stopped and “noticed” all of the extra fabric in her lower back– “the diaper butt.” She pulled the fabric off, unveiling Deep-V Back for the first time. The Deep-V now has a provisional patent, and the designer showed bikini after bikini with the Deep-V Back.
At the end of the show, removable straps on the wraparound suits were the centerpiece. Three models stood at the end of the runway wearing the Vasaro monogram print in gold, black and red. They removed the straps and threw them into the crowd. No other bikini offers the option of removing the wraparound straps for tanning. They’re great for pictures and aesthetics, but terrible for tanning, so theirs are removable!
Vasaro Swimwear, designed by visionary molecular biologist Armani Sadeghi, has redefined the swimwear industry with its revolutionary use of curve illusion science. The collection, meticulously crafted with attention to detail, celebrates the beauty of curves while empowering women with flattering and confidence-boosting designs.
Armani identified a common problem faced by women – the unflattering results of tugging at bikini bottoms to achieve a high-waist look. With two years of dedicated research and development, Vasaro Swimwear resolved this issue, creating the perfect swimsuit that seamlessly combines functionality, style, and affordability.
The luxury swimwear collection draws inspiration from women’s lingerie. The designs featured Cinch Waist Technology, creating a unique combination that sits comfortably high on the waist, accentuating a woman’s curves with an alluring Deep-V back design.
Vasaro Swimwear focuses on curves and lines, creating the illusion of a smaller waist, longer legs, and accentuated hips. This innovative approach cleverly concealed potential problem areas while highlighting a woman’s best features. Through the skillful use of regular fabric and mesh, the collection presented captivating designs that delighted the eye.
Designer Armani Sadeghi expressed his passion for empowering women through fashion, stating, “I wanted to create designs that instill confidence in women, regardless of their shape or size. With my scientific background and deep love for fashion, I crafted a swimsuit that enhances the natural beauty of every woman.”
Miami Swim Week, the world’s largest swimwear fashion week, provided the perfect platform for Vasaro Swimwear to showcase its designs. The evening was filled with mesmerizing fashion shows, live performances, pop-up shops, and unforgettable after-parties. Attendees were captivated by the innovation and artistry showcased by Vasaro Swimwear. For the Silo, Kat Fleischmann.

Vacationers booking holidays through Canadian websites are being charged hundreds of dollars more than overseas customers for exactly the same deals, research commissioned by cybersecurity company NordVPN reveals.
From luxury breaks and hotel stays to car hire, consumers are frequently being presented with wildly different prices depending on where they log on.
Using the American website for Hotels.com resulted in a staggering $805.55 saving for a 7-night stay, while hiring a vehicle through the Italian server resulted in a quote 25% cheaper than the Canadian site.
NordVPN’s researchers used its Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) to make it look to websites like they were not in Canada. They discovered savings across a range of well-known travel sites like Hertz,Expedia, Booking.com and Sixt, for a variety of countries, including Italy, Mexico and the US.
What is a VPN? A VPN disguises your IP address, while improving privacy and security. You select a country and NordVPN ensures that’s where websites think you are. VPN users are then able to see the differing content — and prices — shown to overseas consumers.
Using a VPN, a 7-night stay this August at The Gates Hotel South Beach in Miami, Florida, through Hotels.com revealed a $805 price difference for a family of four. The Canadian website quoted $3,086 and the American site $2,280 — less than a sixth as much. Visiting the website from Italy netted a 22% saving on a 7-night family stay at Venice’s Antony Palace Hotel in August — $376 off the Canadian price of $1,732.
For those visiting the French Riviera, an exclusive 7-night stay in Hotel Casarose in August would cost 16% less using the French version of Hotels.com website, lowering the price from $4,363 to $3,656.
Fans of the UK royal family planning to stay near Kensington Palace could save 13% by using the English Booking.com site, reducing a week’s stay in August at the Twenty Nevern Square Hotel from $4,260 to $3,715.
Going to Booking.com from a French server led to a $1073 lower price on a 7-night vacation at the HĂ´tel Alfred Sommier in Paris in August — bringing the cost down to $8,922. Meanwhile, using an Italian server to search the Rentalcars.com website for car hire in Rome quarter (25%) cheaper than the same company’s offer to Canada-based consumers.
Browsing for more summer hotel deals using the Mexico website of Expedia uncovered a 22% saving for a week break in Cancun at El Taj Oceanfront & Beachside Condo Hotel, leaving bookers $614 better off.
Looking at car hire deals from Hertz through the UK’s website, you could bag a 23% saving — $345 — on a 7-day hire of a Polestar at Edinburgh Airport in August, bringing the price down from $1,482 to $1,137. Using Sixt to book a rental from the Nice Airport in August, this time with Sixt brought up a 13% discount of $92 for hiring a Peugeot 208 for 7 days, making the French server price $650 versus $742.
Also, Sixt quoted a price that was 16% lower for a Jeep Grand Cherokee in Orlando, Florida via the US website for July — charging $867, a saving of $164.
Visiting Sixt from France delivered the 11% discount, with a 7-day hire of a Tesla Model Y from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport offered for $1038, $122 less than the Canadian website’s quote of $1160.
The research was commissioned by NordVPN and conducted by an external company between March 10th and 31st, 2023. Simultaneous searches were made for identical products being sold by the same vendor using numerous country servers.
When conducting the research, there were cases when prices offered to consumers in different countries were similar. However, for illustration purposes, this article and table present the biggest differences in price.Â

Marijus Briedis, Chief Technology Officer at NordVPN, said: “In the internet age it’s never been easier to hunt for a vacation, and you can have all the elements — from car hire to hotel stays — arranged at the click of a mouse.
“For the unsuspecting consumer there’s a price to be paid for these advances. Online tracking used by travel websites means that they can tell what holiday we’re looking for before we do, while algorithms can adjust holiday prices to the spending power of different countries.
“Never assume you’re getting the same deal as everyone else. Your location, the number of visits you pay to a website, and how your search fits in with the school holiday schedule, can all influence the price you’re offered.
“The best way to fight back is to shop around with the same provider using a VPN and see if you can find hidden savings offered to customers overseas. As our research shows, it could save you thousands of dollars a trip.”
How to save on holiday bookings with a VPN
There’s no need to overpay for a holiday abroad. Using a VPN can save you a lot of money – and it’s easy to get started.
Make sure you choose a reliable VPN provider that takes your privacy and security seriously. Though looking for a free option may be tempting, it’s best to stay clear of free VPNs. Here’s how to save on holiday bookings with a VPN:
Get a VPN subscription. If you’re interested in NordVPN, you’ll find our subscription plans here.
Launch the app and enter your credentials to sign in.
Pick a server in a country of your choice, and connect to it.
Head to the provider websites and note down the prices.
Repeat this process with several server locations to find the best price. We also recommend clearing your browser’s cache before returning to the site so it doesn’t identify you as a returning user and impact the price you’re shown.
Even though this process might take a little longer than you’re used to, you’re likely to find some great deals to make it worthwhile. This method will work for finding cheaper flights, hotels, car rentals, and even general online shopping.
