Calling all Negroni Heads: Negroni Week Edinburgh has landed!
From 21–28 September, Negroni lovers can enjoy Negroni Week Edinburgh. Many bars feature their own spin on the drink, including several using Pickering’s Gin.
What is Negroni Week?
Negroni Week is brought to you by Campari and Imbibe in support of Slow Food. This global movement works across 160 countries for a better food and drink system.
Slow Food envisions a world where everyone enjoys food and drink. It should be good for people and the planet.
So, where can you enjoy a Pickering’s Gin Negroni in Edinburgh? Here’s our lineup:
The Royal Dick Bar
Right on our doorstep, The Royal Dick Bar is serving a mini Negroni flight. It features Pickering’s Gin Core Range with various Campari and vermouths. This is a perfect way to explore different ingredients.
The Voodoo Rooms
Just a stone’s throw from Waverley, The Voodoo Rooms is keeping things beautifully classic with a Pickering’s Gin Negroni. Expect plenty of zesty orange fragrance alongside those unmistakably bitter Negroni notes.
Victoria Bar
For something a little more autumnal, Victoria Bar has given the classic Negroni a seasonal twist. Their Sloe-groni combines Pickering’s Sloe Gin, Campari, Noilly Prat and orange bitters for a warming, spiced take on the original.
The Green Rooms
In Edinburgh’s West End, The Green Rooms have got experimental. They infused Pickering’s Gin with rhubarb for a clarified Negroni. It is milk-washed and finished with port.
YUM.
Leith Wine Kitchen
The new kids on the block, Leith Wine Kitchen, have taken inspiration from the Negroni’s cousin, the Enzo. Their pickled grape variation puts a seriously interesting spin on the classic — and is definitely one not to miss.
Hey Palu
Last but not least, Hey Palu is staying true to the classic Negroni. It is bitter, balanced and made with Pickering’s Gin. This shows why the cocktail is a favourite.
