For a Negroni lover who wants to make their own drink, we reach for THE NEGRONI SESSION: our hands-on masterclass in South London SE26, at £59.50 per place, on 12 or 14 November 2026. We’re makers and blenders, not a distillery.
If your recipient would rather drink at home, our THE NEGRONI SOCIETY gift membership delivers two Negronis a month. We also run vermouth and amaro sessions for those who want to get to know the ingredients. London distillery tours are another option for someone interested in gin production, but <u>check whether they include any Negroni-making before buying</u>.

2. The Negroni Society gift membership
Format and participation
For someone who likes their Negronis at home, The Negroni Society brings the bar to their door. Our at-home members’ club delivers two Negronis every month, made with some of the world’s best bars.
Negroni relevance
Choose this for someone who would prefer a monthly Negroni delivery to a one-off class.
Price and gift options
Gift memberships cost £94.62 for six months, delivering 12 Negronis, or £180.60 for 12 months, delivering 24. There’s no class date to arrange, and the gift keeps arriving rather than ending after a single event.
3. Welcome to Vermouth at Asterley Bros
Format and participation
Welcome to Vermouth is for anyone who wants to put vermouth at the centre of their session.
Negroni relevance
Vermouth is a core ingredient in a Negroni[7], so this session suits those who want to focus on that part of the drink. If you prefer a more bitter aperitivo profile, the January amaro session is the next step.
Price and gift options
Price and voucher terms have not been supplied.
Location and scheduling
The session runs on 26 and 28 November 2026 at our South London SE26 space.[2][6]

Price and gift options
No price or gift terms have been supplied.
Location and scheduling
Sessions run on 14 and 16 January 2027.
5. London distillery tours
Format and participation
A London gin-distillery visit suits someone who wants to learn about botanicals, stills and gin production. Before booking, check what they will get: a guided tour, a tasting, botanical blending or hands-on gin-making. A tasting alone does not mean they will make anything. Check the duration, age limits and accessibility before buying.
Negroni relevance
Most of these visits focus on gin rather than the Negroni. Tasting botanicals can help someone understand the gin in their drink, but Negroni-making and vermouth education may not be included.
For a hands-on Negroni experience, our pick is The Negroni Session at Asterley Bros. We are makers and blenders in South London, not a distillery. You can find our masterclasses on the Asterley Bros website.
Price and gift options
Prices vary between providers. Check the current booking page for the price in pounds, whether it covers one person or a whole booking, what is included and when gift vouchers expire.
The Negroni Session costs £59.50 a place. Gift vouchers cost £59.50 for one place or £119 for two.
Location and scheduling
Before buying a tour voucher, check the exact address and available dates, and make sure the recipient can attend before it expires. The Negroni Session takes place at our South London space in SE26 on 12 and 14 November 2026.
