A bottled Negroni and the fifth in our single batch line of botanical spirits.
The story goes that in 1919 at a bar in Florence, Count Camillo Negroni asked the bartender to strengthen his Americano by swapping the soda for gin. The bartender obliged and a cocktail was born.
Forthave’s version begins with our Red Aperitivo, a layered blend of over 13 botanicals including Seville orange peel, gentian root, rhubarb, and aromatic spices, fortified with our Blue Gin, a botanical-forward spirit distilled with over 18 organic plants, and softened with a house-blended vermouth.
The vermouth begins with a distillation and aromatization of Finger Lakes wine, distilled with various botanicals including hyssop, orris root and mace, and macerated post-distillation with fresh citrus and other botanicals. This distillate then fortifies a fresh Finger Lakes wine, which is sweetened, rested, and topped with a dash of vermouth from fellow NY producer Method.
One part of the Negroni was aged in barrels, another part aged in tanks, and a last
part made fresh and blended in before bottling.
FIVE opens with the bright citrus aromatics of our Red aperitivo, and the floral
botanicals of our Blue gin. The portion aged in oak lends warmth, texture, and subtle
spice, while the stainless-aged portion preserves the drink’s bright aromas,
freshness, and structure.
Serve chilled over ice with an orange twist.
The Single Batch line allows us to discover and experiment with new recipes and production methods. Each release in this line is a one-off, never to be repeated or recreated. There are only 6336 bottles of FIVE available.
