William Perbellini Serves Seven Interpretations of the Italian Classic in Seven Days to Benefit the Gordon Brown Fellowship
The talented William Perbellini, resident Mixologist at Bar Toscana, presents two special events and seven cocktails to celebrate Negroni Week 2016 in Los Angeles, June 6-12. Bar Toscana, Imbibe Magazine and Campari join together to celebrate one of the world’s greatest Italian drinks in an effort to raise money for charities around the world. Enjoy seven days at Bar Toscana toasting with Campari, gin and vermouth to support Bar Toscana’s favorite cause, The Gordon Brown Fellowship.
On Tuesday, June 7, Bar Toscana teams with Campari Italian Brands to host a special ‘Aperitivo,’ featuring three cocktails and Italian-style bar bites. On Wednesday, Carpano Antica and Fratelli Branca partners to present another ‘Aperitivo.’ Both events are open to the public and presented from 5:30-7:30. The cocktails are priced à la carte and bar bites are complimentary.
For the duration of Negroni Week, Perbellini crafts seven perfect mixes of the Italian cocktail – the Bar Toscana Classic Negroni; The Camparino, prepared with Bulldog Gin, Amaro Braulio, Cinzano 1757, Campari; Bar Toscana Barrel Aged Negroni; Negroni Sbagliato with Prosecco; Negroski with Basil Infused Vodka; Negronito with Espadin Mezcal; and the Negroni Antico with Martin Miller’s Gin, Punt e Mes, Carpano Antica and Campari.
Perbellini, who perfected his craft at the famed Hotel Cipriani in Venice, perfected his line of Negronis to complement the extensive menu of Italian Stuzzichini and Classici di Toscana, along with Bar Toscana nightly specials. All Negroni drinks are priced at $14.
