Negroni Week celebrates the classic Italian cocktail known for its distinctively bitter flavor profile, which some find to be an acquired taste. The Negroni has become a staple in the craft cocktail scene, often used as a benchmark to assess the quality of a bar or bartender. The week's activities benefit the non-profit Slow Food, a global movement in 160 countries of local communities and activists seeking to change the world through healthy food and beverage that is good for the planet.
The exact origin of the Negroni is debated, with the most widely accepted story originating the drink in Florence, Italy, around 1919. According to the tale, Count Camillo Negroni asked a bartender to strengthen his favorite drink, the Americano, by replacing the soda water with gin. The bartender also added an orange garnish rather than the traditional lemon garnish of the Americano to signify that it was a different drink. From there, the Negroni was born.
