There’s a bunch of Negroni dynasties claiming true provenance of the definitive cocktail and they’re all a bit speculative, but it reputedly originated in a bar in early 1900s Florence at the request of local aristo Count Camillo Negroni who was looking to stiffen up his Americano by replacing the soda water with gin. Negronis are always stirred, not shaken (sorry, 007) and served over ice with a twist of orange. Over the years, the Negroni has gained a global following, solidifying its status as a beloved classic cocktail.

Our Negroni is made with Moatwood Gin, produced in Suffolk using wild-foraged starflower from its 2,500-acre regenerative farm. Light, smooth and subtly floral, with a hint of sweet orange, the gin works beautifully with the bold flavours of this Italian classic. We combine it with Campari and sweet vermouth in equal measure, creating the distinctive balance of citrus, sweetness and bitterness that makes a great Negroni.
