What is the Best Gin for a Negroni?

The Negroni is one of the most iconic cocktails in the world, equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari. But while the recipe is simple, the gin you choose can elevate your Negroni from good to unforgettable.

So, what’s the best gin for a Negroni? The answer depends on what kind of experience you’re looking for, and we believe Latin Gin Secco offers something truly exceptional.

Why the Gin Matters in a Negroni

Gin is the heart of a Negroni. Its botanicals add complexity, aroma, and structure. A classic London Dry might give you juniper punch, but modern gin lovers are looking for balance and sophistication.

That’s where Latin Secco shines:

• Distilled in the Italian Alps
• Juniper-forward with soft citrus and floral notes
• Infused with authentic botanicals like Italian coriander, lemon peel, and orange peel
• Cold-distilled for a smoother, more vibrant flavor

What Makes Latin Secco Perfect for a Negroni?

• Elegant Balance: Bold enough to stand out, smooth enough to blend.
• Flavor Integrity: Cold distillation preserves delicate botanicals, no stewed or bitter notes.
• Modern Mediterranean Soul: It’s a gin made for cocktails and crafted for elevated experiences.

“You can mix this gin into any cocktail, and it won’t get lost.”
