Martini
The definitive gin cocktail, stirred with dry vermouth and garnished with an olive or a lemon twist.
Negroni
A sophisticated Italian aperitif. Perfectly balanced between the botanical gin, sweet vermouth, and bracingly bitter Campari.

Which should you pick?
Pick the Martini if you want something cleaner and less bitter. Go with the Negroni if you'd rather have something bitter and complex. Both are boozy and spirit-forward and herbal and aromatic, so if you enjoy one you'll likely appreciate the other.
