Saw this in today’s World Whisky Day Scotsman Food and Drink section and thought I would capture for posterity and future use.
It’s world whisky day on Saturday the 15 May, so we’ve put together a list of incredible whisky cocktails to showcase the versatility of this liquid gold.
Highlander’s Negroni
By Charlotte Davies, Head Sommelier at The Three Chimneys Restaurant
Whilst a negroni is traditionally made with gin and not whisky, we make an exception for this particular dram.
The Isle of Raasay is the Isle of Skye’s neighbouring island, just a short trip over on the ferry.
The Isle of Raasay whisky is matured in first fill Tennessee whiskey barrels and finished in first field Bordeaux red wine barrels; the whisky used in this recipe is a limited edition first release. Its lightly peated and its rich dark fruit flavours work perfectly with the bitter orange Campari and red vermouth.

Ingredients:
- 25ml Campari
