What does it take to become a world-class bartender?

Beyond technique and cocktails, it's a journey of creativity, discipline, storytelling, and passion. We take a closer look at the platform helping Filipino bartenders thrive on the international stage.

The sun came back. So did we.

Three years after the first Boys of Summer found its home on these shores, we returned to where it all began. Not to recreate a moment. Not to chase nostalgia. But to begin again.

This year's lineup brings together eight young men at a crossroads—actors, athletes, performers, and dreamers, each carrying their own story into the season ahead. Somewhere between the sea, the heat, the laughter, and the long days under a Batangas sun, something happened: not just a photoshoot, but a snapshot of who they are right now.

Ron Angeles. Kobie Brown. Marcus Asis. Caizer of 6ENSE. James Lucero. Eli Padilla. Paul Enriquez. Anton Eusebio.

This is Boys of Summer 2026.

And this time, the boys brought everything.

Last night, this played inside Secret Door. Tonight, we're sharing it with everyone.

What began on the shores of Laiya became three days of sun, sea, stories, and eight young men bringing every part of themselves to the season. Ron Angeles, Kobie Brown, Marcus Asis, Caizer of 6ENSE, James Lucero, Eli Padilla, Paul Enriquez, and Anton Eusebio—captured in a moment they'll never quite be in again.

This is Boys of Summer 2026.

Every year, PARCINQ’s SUPERFRESH introduces a new set of names to watch. It has always been about recognizing potential early, at a point where everything is still taking shape but already moving with direction.

For our 5th anniversary, Baileys, Mathew, Arc, Brandon, Thirdy, and Brix each arrive with stories still unfolding. Different paths brought them here, but they share the same thing: growth, intention, and the confidence of those ready for what comes next.

Some are finding their sound. Some are expanding their world. Some are stepping into spaces bigger than where they started. One thing is certain: this is only the beginning.

Meet the boys of SUPERFRESH before everyone else does.

Now available in print — grab your copy of PARCINQ COLLECTOR'S EDITION 02.
