Dutch’s Colonial Cocktail Bitters

(Click to Enlarge)

This aromatic tincture is an essential ingredient for any home bar. Handcrafted in small batches using botanicals popular in the 18th century, the main ingredients – wild American Spicebush and Kinnikinnick leaf, were first introduced to early settlers by Native Americans acquainted with their fragrant properties. Dutch’s is the first to use these botanicals as a natural complement to modern cocktails. We draw flavors from around the globe to complete our recipe such as Turkish bitter orange peel, Hungarian angelica seed, Indian red rose petals and sandalwood, French lavender, and Egyptian chamomile. Lastly, we add dashes of Albanian juniper, Honduran allspice, and real Ceylon cinnamon to round out the character of the spicebush. Dutch’s Colonial Cocktail Bitters have a pleasant bitterness up front, a complex spicy flavor base and floral top notes. Unusual, distinctive, and one of a kind, add 4-6 drops to give your favorite cocktails an historic twist.
