Bitter Cocktails
Bitter cocktails lean on dry, bracing flavour rather than sweetness, with vermouth, amaro, Campari and similar ingredients pulling the drink towards depth and bite. The Boulevardier brings that character into a rich, spirit-forward shape, while the Negroni shows how bitterness can stay bright, balanced and unmistakably refreshing. In these results you can compare base spirit, strength, format, technique and flavour direction, from stirred aperitifs to darker, more autumnal serves like Autumn Negroni. The full set covers 57 cocktails, so there is plenty here whether you want a sharp pre-dinner pour or something more layered and contemplative.
