Next up on the #NegroniWeek tour of Charleston with our #partners campariusa and imbibe is one of my favorite places in the city... @gin_joint!
.
Their Negroni variant called 'The Shaman' figuratively and literally required them to PLAY WITH FIRE 🔥and left the bar patrons ooh-ing and ahh-ing at the process. Mixologist @james_b0lt used a table-top siphon (typically used for coffee) to heat the Campari enough to siphon into the upper chamber filled with a "Tropical Teapot" of various citrus and spices (ingredients below). The resulting infusion was then mixed with a floral vermouth, barrel aged gin and black lemon bitters, making for not only one of the most unique Negronis we've ever seen or tasted, but an amazing visual experience as well. Needless to say, multiple 'Shaman' Negronis were ordered that night.
