Timbaland Launches LeSutra at Fontainebleau Miami Beach

MIAMI BEACH, Fla., July 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- A celebrity playground since the days when Frank Sinatra and Jackie Gleason glided across its signature bowtie floor, Fontainebleau Miami Beach will host one of this generation's most iconic music sensations, Timbaland, from August 30 to September 3 during the next installment of the resort's BleauLive performance series. The weekend festivities will kick-off the launch of Timbaland's new brand to the spirits market - LeSutra, an innovative ultra-premium combination of sparkling liqueurs infused with premium vodka, inspired by the Kama Sutra.

"What better way to celebrate the one-year anniversary of BleauLive than with a performance by Timbaland and the launch of his new product, LeSutra, over Labor Day weekend," notes Philip Goldfarb, President & COO, Fontainebleau Miami Beach.  "Since the inception of the BleauLive entertainment platform, we have sought to create exceptionally unique, intimate experiences that no other resort offers. BleauLive continues to deliver an eclectic mix of today's top performers on an ongoing basis."

This exclusive celebrity-studded weekend will include a private performance by Timbaland, tantalizing tastings of the sparkling liqueur's four exhilarating flavors (strawberry, grape, peach and blueberry) and poolside parties with delicious LeSutra cocktails developed by the resort's mixologists.  Guests can partake in the festivities by booking one of the weekend's limited BleauLive packages that provides access to the events and tastings including:
