About ANGOSTURA® bittersThe proud history of the House of ANGOSTURA® began almost two hundred years ago in 1824, when founder Dr. Johann Siegert first produced aromatic bitters in the city of Angostura in Venezuela. Recognised over the centuries by the granting of Royal Warrants of Appointment to the royal households of Great Britain, Prussia, Spain and Sweden, ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters is the world’s market leader, an essential ingredient in premium cocktails, and a mainstay of cocktail culture. ANGOSTURA® orange bitters was launched in 2007 and is made from its own special recipe, with a complex blend of tropical oranges and spices. ANGOSTURA® cocoa bitters uses the world’s finest Trinitario cocoa from Trinidad and Tobago creating a sensory fusion that, after years of nurturing, brings superior flavour to the hands of bartenders, chefs and at-home connoisseurs.
The House of ANGOSTURA® also produces an international range of rums with five distinctive blends: Angostura 1824®, Angostura 1919®, Angostura® 7-Year-Old, Angostura® 5-Year-Old and Angostura® Reserva. The newest product in the portfolio is the multi award-winning Amaro di ANGOSTURA® - a blend of their finest bitters and rums, leveraging their unsurpassed heritage.
