Our journey continues
Recently we proudly announced that Bandoeng’22 became available in Finland and Norway. But we’re not stopping there! We’re thrilled to share that our first pallets of Pandan Liqueur are now arriving in Bucharest. Thanks to Negroni Trading, bartenders and cocktail lovers in Romania can now experience the unique taste of Bandoeng’22.
Drinking Culture in Romania
Curious about Romania’s drinking scene? Here’s what we found from a quick deep dive:
Wine – Romania is one of the largest wine producers in the world and ranks fifth in Europe (after Italy, France, Spain, and Germany). While lesser known internationally, Romanian wines are highly regarded.
Beer – The country boasts a diverse beer culture, including craft beers that have gained immense popularity alongside traditional brands that have been around for centuries.
Spirits & Brandy – Romania’s signature brandy is Țuică, made from plums, while other brandies (Rachiu) are often infused with anise and served as an aperitif.
Cocktails – Bucharest has a vibrant cocktail scene, offering everything from relaxed speakeasies to high-end rooftop bars. Signature drinks include the Palinca Sour, Romaniac, Cloudy Apple (with Romanian whisky), and Carpathian Mist (with Romanian plum brandy).
This has us so excited—we might have to pack our bags for a visit soon!
