What is Starward Whisky Negroni Cocktail?
Starward Whisky Negroni Cocktail offers a unique twist on the classic Italian aperitif by replacing gin with Australian whisky, creating a bolder, more complex flavor profile.

Why do we love Starward Whisky Negroni Cocktail?

This ready-to-drink cocktail captures the essence of Melbourne's food and drink culture, offering a distinctly Australian twist on the Italian favorite that's both convenient and crafted with the same attention to detail as a freshly mixed version.
How do you drink Starward Whisky Negroni Cocktail?
Starward Whisky Negroni Cocktail shines when sipped slowly over ice, allowing its complex flavors to unfold as the drink gradually dilutes.

Nose: Bright citrus notes of orange zest blend with the herbaceous aromas of juniper and wormwood. Hints of vanilla and caramel from the whisky mingle with the spicy, bitter scent of Campari.
Palate: Rich and complex. The sweet Australian whisky forms a smooth base, while bitter orange and herbal flavors from the vermouth and Campari create balance. Notes of dark cherry, cinnamon, and a touch of oak add depth.
Finish: Long and warming. The bitterness of the Negroni components lingers, accompanied by a subtle whisky sweetness. A gentle spice and citrus peel bitterness remain, inviting the next sip.
The Starward Whisky Negroni is a uniquely Australian twist on the classic cocktail, crafted by blending Starward's red wine barrel-aged whisky with Campari and sweet vermouth.
