The week in pictures

This week in the world of drinks: F1 legend Jenson Button launches a whiskey, Bottega opens a Prosecco bar in Venice, and a new South London cultural hub, pub and street food experience arrives in Peckham.

Former Formula 1 driver Jenson Button has launched his own blended Scotch whisky, Coachbuilt alongside renowned whisky expert George Koutsakis.

Bottega has launched a brand new Prosecco bar in Venice, in the Extra-Schengen departure area of Venice airport.

Sandro Bottega, President of Bottega S.p.A., said of the new opening “The opening of a Prosecco Bar inside the Venice airport is a goal I have been pursuing for a long time. The project is a modern evolution of the Venetian bacaro, so we could not miss a location of excellence in the territory which it belongs to. The airport area gives it an international profile. Ideally, if you have a meal or a snack before boarding, the sensations you bring to your palate and soul are to be experienced slowly”.

And a new cultural arts space, pub experience and street food venue has opened in Peckham. The Greyhound promises vegan street food, artisan pizza, drag inspired sunday roasts, craft beers, cocktails alongside live music and regular DJ sets.
