Atavi is an intriguing new food brand created in partnership with legendary Catalan Chef Albert Adrià and launched in the UK last autumn 2023 with its inaugural line of incredible tagliatelle. Offering a new tasting experience using traditional ingredients and ancient techniques, the three new tagliatelle will unlock astonishing flavours without adding unnecessary extras to the pasta with two simple ingredients - wheat and water. The tagliatelle is available in three variants: Sourdough, Smoked and Umami, and is elevated as the hero of the dish, requiring minimal pairing or complex recipes.

Founded in 1969 by Tony Laithwaite under a railway arch in Windsor, Laithwaites is now the UK’s largest direct to customer wine merchant. They stock over 1,000 wines from around the world (90 per cent of which are exclusive to Laithwaites), and even make a few themselves, including award-winning English sparkling fizz. Still family owned, Laithwaites prefers to source wines directly from family-run wineries, many of whom they have worked for decades – simply because they know they make better wines.
