From now till 26 March, 1-Group is back with its month-long Sip & Savour campaign. Launched as an annual initiative last year, Sip & Savour is a celebration of local cocktail culture and the spirit of camaraderie within the industry. The second edition this year will again transpire across eight key outlets with activations including bar collaborations, drink-and-dine programmes, guest shifts and happenings throughout Singapore.

Guest and in-house bartenders are set to interpret and create their own unique cocktail in collaboration with Johnnie Walker Gold Label, the official alcohol partner of Sip & Savour. In addition to campaign-exclusive Highball variants, an exciting calendar of parties, brand activations with the likes of Hendrick’s and Aperol, Grill Out nights, alongside brunch and dining specials await. Here’s what went on so far, and what’s upcoming:
