Gibson
A bone-dry gin martini distinguished by a single, briny cocktail onion in place of the usual olive or twist.
Negroni
A sophisticated Italian aperitif. Perfectly balanced between the botanical gin, sweet vermouth, and bracingly bitter Campari.

Which should you pick?
Pick the Gibson 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.
