When St. Agrestis first launched its ready-to-drink Negroni, the cocktail’s featured, house-made red bitter—designed to shine in this quintessential application—compelled such curiosity that it was eventually bottled on its own. Inferno Bitter is a must-have for any back bar and can be enjoyed in classic aperitivo-hour applications or simply with a splash of orange juice over ice.
