Pixie Geldof and actor Nabhaan Rizwan were among the fashionable names who gathered at Sessions Arts Club in London for The Singleton’s Summer Supper — an evening dedicated to the joy of slowing down.

The intimate event, hosted by the single malt whisky brand, brought together a curated guest list of artists, writers, designers and creatives to toast the start of the season in style.

Inspired by The Singleton’s signature slow distillation process, the supper was a celebration of craftsmanship, creativity and connection.

Guests including fashion designer Henry Holland, musician and producer Cktrl, florist Christine Leigh-Chung, and writer Phoebe Lovatt were welcomed with cocktails on the rooftop terrace before heading into the atmospheric candlelit dining room.

Tables were adorned with wild, pared-back florals inspired by summer blooms from the Scottish Highlands, where The Singleton’s Dufftown distillery is based.

A seasonal menu was served alongside bespoke cocktails crafted with The Singleton 12-Year-Old, including the Peach Cobbler, the Golden Hour and a Hazelnut & Espresso Martini.

Speaking after the gathering, Ellie Deans, Head of Single Malts UK at Diageo, said: “This evening is a really special moment to be able to celebrate The Singleton with likeminded creatives — both recent collaborators and those whose work we admire.

“The Singleton embraces the opportunity that comes with the start of summer to come together with friends and share slower evenings.”

A short film taken in the Highlands earlier this year by Sessions’ founder Jonny Gent’s Cabin Studio was projected on the wall to immerse the group in the Singleton’s brand world - featuring scenes of the natural landscape surrounding the Singleton’s Dufftown distillery.
