The 10th edition of Negroni Week in Singapore will be fronted by 10 representing bartenders alongside their Negroni Handshake as a celebration of creativity, hospitality and the bittersweet constant of the iconic cocktail – Campari. The annual initiative by Campari Group and Imbibe Magazine sees over 60 venues across Singapore during the week offering creative renditions of the classic cocktail. Negroni Week happens from 12 to 18 September 2022, and every Negroni that you imbibe at these bars will see a portion of proceeds donated to their choice of charity.
Campari Group Asia has recruited 10 local bars to lead this year’s campaign including Caffe Fernet, Nutmeg & Clove, Smoke & Mirrors, The Bar at 15 Stamford, Atlas, Anti:Dote, 28 Hong Kong Street, O/T Bar, Trapizza and Southbridge.
