What’s happening: Some of the original team behind west end speakeasy, Wheesht, are hosting a pop-up for Glasgow Cocktail Week.

Wheesht, which was located below the Bloc pop up on 10 Claremont Street (formally Nonya), shut down in March 2020, with the guys behind it - Jamie Moran and Dave Salvadord Ali - going on to work at The Absent Ear speakeasy.
