Campari

Campari is the deep red Italian bitter that’s been the backbone of proper aperitivo culture since 1860 — a closely-guarded blend of herbs, aromatic plants and fruit peels that still isn’t fully public knowledge.

Bold and genuinely bitter in a way Aperol isn’t, with orange peel and rhubarb up front and a long, herbal finish. This is the choice for guests who want a Negroni instead of a Spritz.

A proper Negroni before dinner — equal parts Campari, gin and sweet vermouth over ice.
