Making waves
Shucking tradition, Noisy Oyster
has landed in Shoreditch – all
stainless steel, sharp mini
martinis and seafood served
with a side of swagger. From the
same team that gave us Soho’s
Firebird, it’s east London’s
hottest new opening – and the
coolest place for chilling out.

Made in England
Hot on the heels of the inaugural English Whisky Week – which brought
lovers of the amber nectar together in April – comes the launch of the world’s
first fully English blended whisky, Experience N.22: Pastures New. Behind the
venture is blending house Woven, which brought together six pioneering
distilleries to create a tipple that captures England’s fast-emerging whisky
scene: creative, collaborative and full of character. Experience N.22: Pastures
New (49.1%), £55, wovenwhisky.com

In the habit of plotting travels around great
watering holes? Paris will be firmly on your
radar, then, with the launch of Le Grand
Café brasserie in the revamped Grand
Palais. Cocktails are overseen by Colin
Field, formerly of the Ritz’s Hemingway Bar,
whose finesse finds a natural fit amid the
grandeur. Order a Boulevardier (whiskey,
sweet vermouth, Campari), sit back and
drink it all in. brasserielegrandpalais.fr
