This cool Campari® and sweet vermouth cocktail became well-known thanks to American travelers visiting Italy. In essence, it is a Negroni with the gin octane removed. Nice for sipping in a Rome cafe in the afternoon. or perhaps even Topeka.

Reviews
Sorry, I think it needed the “gin octane,” as this had very little flavor., so little that I would even call it subtle. Think I’ll stick with the Negroni.
