Angostura Orange Bitters

Angostura Orange Bitters, a relatively newer offering from the House of Angostura, hails from Trinidad and Tobago, though the brand's story began in Venezuela. Dr. Johann Siegert first created the original Angostura aromatic bitters in 1824 in the town of Angostura, Venezuela, as a medicinal tonic for soldiers. The company, renowned for its iconic aromatic bitters with the oversized label and secret recipe, relocated to Trinidad in 1875. While the original aromatic bitters is a historic staple, Angostura Orange Bitters was introduced much later, in 2007, offering a distinct citrus-forward profile with bright floral notes and fresh orange peel characteristics. The Angostura brand is globally recognized and celebrated, with their aromatic bitters being a dominant force in the cocktail bitters market.

Angostura Orange Bitters offers a bright, zesty orange peel character with subtle spice, a fantastic addition to your home bar. It truly sings in rum and whiskey cocktails, adding a vibrant citrus lift and complexity that complements aged spirits beautifully; think Old Fashioneds or Manhattans.

Greeting the senses is a fresh, mellow aroma of orange, nicely complemented by a blend of aromatic spices. The taste offers a harmonious mix of sweet and bitter, introducing a warm burst of citrus and spice notes that give way to a subtly astringent finish.
