Our friend in the yellow cap, ANGOSTURA© aromatic bitters, is in a league of its own when it comes to balancing the flavours of mixed drinks and is a key ingredient in some of the best cocktails the world over.
If you’ve been to a restaurant or cocktail bar recently, you might have noticed just how many cocktails include ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters on their crafty cocktail menus. It’s a favourite ingredient amongst bartenders - like salt is to chefs - because it adds a depth of flavour like no other with its herbaceous nature.
