Sponsored: Go for lunch or dinner, and stock up on your favourite tipples…

African + Eastern have got stores all over the UAE, so no matter where you live, your favourite drinks are never far away. But in a citywide first, African + Eastern have opened their first store within Arrazuna at The Link, One Za’abeel.

The new, first-of-its-kind concept store is located on the 24th floor of One Za’abeel inside Arrazuna, itself a unique culinary and retail destination. Alongside eight open kitchens, a coffee roastery and a juice counter, you can now find a boutique African + Eastern store where you can shop a curated selection of premium wines and spirits.

The Arrazuna retail area is designed to feel like a vibrant market plucked straight from the Middle East, and as well as the new African + Eastern store, you can shop an array of locally-inspired produce and regional artisans.

As with all A+E stores, you can expect an expertly curated selection of premium beverages, and friendly, knowledgeable service to help you discover new labels and drinks to enjoy at home. So, whether you’re heading to Arrazuna for lunch or dinner, or you’re simply there to shop, you can also add picking up your favourite tipples to your visit.
