CLASSIC NEGRONI
Classic is a classic.
When it comes to the bespoke elements which makes Matto’s Negroni stand out, it is in the mixing of the ingredients, each of which are added separately into the mixing glass then stirred gently.
A peel of the orange is added with the ice to aromatise the mixing glass, then the Campari is stirred to break down the flavours. The gin then marries the Campari to bring up the botanicals found in both. By the time the sweet vermouth is added, the balance of the strong botanical flavours and the spices is achieved.
All that is left is to sip. And order a second.
NEGRONI Invecchiato
The Three Musketeers
Picture a fresh lavender infused Bombay Sapphire Gin. Now imagine Campari infused with fresh lemon peels for 72 hours. And then, conjure up a visual of Martini Rosso flavoured with homemade blue-blackberry jam.
All these incredible ingredients are put together in an oak barrel and left for a week before finally poured into a Negroni glass and served with smoked cinnamon.
