Sibling Negroni Gin, 70 cl

Product Information

Campari: An Italian liqueur from a blend of herbs and fruits, including bitter orange, rhubarb, ginseng, and cascarilla bark. Campari gives the Negroni its signature bittersweet taste. Glowing red, the Negroni manages to be both sophisticated and simple at the same time and is definitely for a grown-up palate - for many it's simply too bitter. It takes its depth from the vermouth, is centred by the bittersweet liqueur, and is made to sing through the vitality of the gin. It makes the perfect aperitivo and, though popular the world over, is the traditional default during aperitivo hour in Milan. Well, Negroni week is the best time to drink a Negroni!
