Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set

750ml & 48 Proof

What is Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set?

This elegant gift set bundles everything you need to craft the perfect Negroni at home, featuring the iconic Campari that gives the cocktail its signature ruby-red hue and bittersweet bite. Interestingly, Campari's secret recipe is so closely guarded that only one person in the world knows the full formula at any given time, and the ingredient-containing base alcohol is produced in a locked room that only a select few employees can enter.

Why do we love Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set?

The Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set is a must-have for any cocktail enthusiast, offering not just the iconic Campari liqueur, but also a specially designed Negroni glass and mixing spoon to perfect your at-home cocktail game. This set stands out by providing everything you need to create the perfect Negroni, showcasing Campari's unique blend of herbs and exotic fruits like chinotto and cascarilla, which give the liqueur its distinctive bitter-sweet flavor profile and vibrant red hue.

How do you drink Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set?

The Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set is perfectly suited for crafting classic Italian aperitivo cocktails, best enjoyed before a meal to stimulate the appetite or as a refreshing sipper on warm summer evenings. While delicious year-round, Campari-based drinks particularly shine when paired with light antipasti or seafood dishes, their bitter-sweet complexity cutting through rich flavors and cleansing the palate.

Nose: Bright, zesty orange peel dominates, followed by hints of cherry and herbal undertones. A subtle whiff of juniper from the gin component adds complexity. The aroma is distinctly bitter-sweet, with a medicinal edge that awakens the senses.

Palate: Initially sweet, quickly giving way to a pronounced bitterness. Flavors of grapefruit, orange, and rhubarb mingle with earthy herbal notes. The gin's botanical profile adds depth, while the vermouth contributes a subtle wine-like sweetness. A warming spice builds, reminiscent of cinnamon and clove.

Finish: Long and pleasantly bitter. The citrus notes linger, accompanied by a drying sensation. Hints of quinine and gentian root persist, leaving a refreshing and slightly astringent aftertaste. The finish invites another sip, making it an excellent aperitif.

The Campari Negroni Cocktail Gift Set is a carefully curated package that combines the iconic Campari aperitif with essential Negroni-making tools. While the exact production process of Campari remains a closely guarded secret, we know it involves infusing a blend of herbs, aromatic plants, and fruit in alcohol and water—a method that has remained largely unchanged since its creation in 1860.

  • The iconic red color of Campari was originally derived from carmine dye, extracted from cochineal insects. In 2006, Campari switched to an artificial coloring, but the vibrant hue remains a hallmark of the brand.
  • James Bond, known for his love of martinis, actually ordered a Campari-based Americano in Ian Fleming's first 007 novel, "Casino Royale." The Americano is considered the predecessor to the Negroni.
  • The Negroni was allegedly invented in 1919 when Count Camillo Negroni asked a bartender to strengthen his Americano by replacing the soda water with gin. The bartender also added an orange garnish to distinguish it from the usual Americano.
