From Florence with Love: The Negroni Experience

Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast or simply looking to expand your knowledge, this interactive class will take you on a journey through the history, ingredients, and variations of this timeless Italian classic.

The story of the Negroni begins in Florence, Italy, in 1919 when Count Camillo Negroni asked his bartender to strengthen his favorite cocktail, the Americano, by replacing soda water with gin. The result was a perfectly balanced blend of bitter, sweet, and botanical flavors that has become a staple of cocktail culture around the world.
