The art of craft

We gathered some of Joburg’s most creative artists to explore the next chapter in the Tabac Original journey

-

With a 60-year history of creating Worldrenow­ned grooming products, Tabac is no stranger to celebratin­g the individual. This year, the collection gains a fresh burst of energy with the introducti­on of the all-new Tabac Original Craftsman, created for men of action who take matters into their own hands.

To dig deeper into the Craftsman story, we held an exclusive unveiling event at Joburg’s Truffles in the Park restaurant on 31 October. Guests enjoyed a delectable summer harvest dining experience, punctuated by a create-your-own cocktail experience and fiery musical performanc­es by Terrence Mckay, DJ

King Ice, and La-based rapper, Gin.

Nkosiyati Khumalo led a lively conversati­on with producer, entreprene­ur, and Tabac brand ambassador Thapelo Mokoena on what being a craftsman means to him. ‘Being an ambassador means I’m able to represent this big idea of the craftsman,’ he said.

‘My journey as an artist complement­s the craftsman journey – and it allows us to celebrate ourselves as nuanced individual­s. It’s about defining greatness on our own terms.’
