A traditional marmalade scent sets off act one of the Bitter Truth Orange Bitters on the nose. This is followed by a cacophony of clove, cinnamon and nutmeg.
On first taste, cardamom and caraway make an entrance and the finishing number is true orange peel oil.
This ingredient supports the cast of a traditional martini but duets well with rums, whiskies and tequilas as well.
The Bitter Truth Orange Bitters are a combination of bitter orange peel and several herbs and spices that are macerated in alcohol.
The first orange bitters were released in the 1880s, a time when many classic cocktails such as the Martinez and Manhattan were created.
Today they are still essential for the preparation of a Classic Martini Cocktail. The Bitter Truth Orange Bitters can be combined with all kinds of spirits such as Whisk(e)y, Rum, Vodka and Gin.
Tasting Notes:
The fruity sweetness at the beginning is quickly followed by a very bitter taste. The aroma of bitter orange peel is in the foreground, completed by spicy flavors of cardamom, caraway and nutmeg.
