A RED ICON
CAMPARI is a perfect blend of bitter herbs,
aromatic plants and fruit, and alcohol. The
secret recipe, invented in 1860 and known only
by three people, remains true to the original.

      Bittersweet, intense orange, aromatic

THE STORY
OF CAMPARI
Born in Milan
Gaspare Campari began serving cocktails
made with his own unique, bitter aperitivo
at Milan’s Caffè Campari in 1867. Young
Milanese flocked here to enjoy these
intriguing bittersweet drinks and later to
the Camparino bar opened by Gaspare’s
son Davide in 1915.

Under Davide’s direction, the global
popularity of CAMPARI soared. Not least
because he understood the power of design
and creativity in building brand recognition,
and engaged with leading designers,
illustrators and filmmakers to bring the
vibrant red drink to life.

By the mid-1900s, CAMPARI had become
indelibly linked to Milan’s peerless culture
and synonymous with avant-garde creativity
and thinking.

NEGRONIOLOGY
  Twists on a classic
  Over the last decade the Negroni has soared
  in popularity to become one of the world’s
  most famous cocktails. It is a true classic.
  This is undeniably due to the support of the
  bartender community.

  With the evolution of the Negroni front
  of mind, CAMPARI has invited leading
  bartenders and mixologists from bars across
  the UK to showcase their creative expression
  on the classic Negroni recipe of equal parts
  CAMPARI, gin and sweet vermouth.

  Negroniology is the collection of these
  wonderful and imaginative modern riffs and
  creative twists, created by a handpicked
  selection of the UK’s best bartenders. Each
  cocktail is an expression of the bar and its
  talented bartender.

  From a light, crisp and clean Negroni, to one
  exploring the fusion of Scottish and Italian
  heritage, another that transports you to Milan
  at aperitivo hour, and a cocktail inspired
  by the spirit of the futurist artist Fortunato
  Depero, each of the cocktails featured here
  is an original recipe, created especially for this
  book. We invite you to draw on this inspiration
  and get creative with CAMPARI. Cin Cin!
