Excellia in Negroni, the unexpected pairing
The Tegroni offers a unique take on the great Italian classic. In this version, Excellia Blanco Tequila, with its ripe agave and slightly oaky notes, replaces the gin to add roundness and character. Combined with rich and floral La Quintinye Vermouth Royal Blanc and Suze or artisanal gentian bitters, it creates a cocktail balanced between sweetness, bitterness, and aromatic complexity. Served over ice, the Tegroni is a modern, structured, and surprising aperitif.
