Before taking the first sip, you need to raise the glass to the sun, so its rays burn this liquid pomegranate which moves in the ice; a red sea of icebergs and music of Nino Rota.

Florence 1919 at Café Casoni. Meeting place par excellence of the Florentine aristocracy of the 20s. Count Camillo Negroni was a regular at the Café Casoni like other politicians, aristocrats and Florentine artists of the time. He was well known for his fondness for the “American”; a trendy cocktail created by Cesare Campari with Campari and red vermouth.

One afternoon, between conversations, laghter and friends, Negroni, tired of drinking the same, asked his main bartender, Fosco Scarselli, to add gin to the mix. Distillated that the Count knew well from his frequent trips to London.

Thus the cocktail that bears his name was born. It is believed that the cheerful and of good life character that the Count flaunted was in part due to the Negroni, cocktail that encourages the good mood and opens the appetite.

According to the Oscar-winning film director Jose Luis Garci “The Negroni is a cocktail of terrace, sun and newspapers, and if it is possible, enjoyed in Rome and in Piazza Navona”.
