Casa Noble

Jessica Mason attended the unveiling of the new limited launch of Marqués de Casa Noble at Notting Hill’s Viajente87 where the ultra premium Tequila bottle was recreated as an ice statue before being revealed alongside an ice sculpted agave plant. The next day, she also visited the new Velvet Alfresco lounge at Corinthia London which opens this week alongside Campari giving Londoners a hidden terrace away from the capital city where they can walk into a red oasis and be served with antipasti and negronis. She also visited 100 Wardour Street’s celebrations for its Havana Nights launch party with Havana Club where the team served up rum cocktails to a backdrop of Latin DJ beats and Cuban dancing.

Chile

Louis Thomas concluded his tour of Chile this week with visits to the island of Anihue with Montes, as well as visiting Clos Apalta, TerraNoble, Invina and many other producers in recent days.

You can read his full write-up of his trip to Chile in the September issue of the drinks business.
