In the last 10 years, there has been a big resurgence of interest in mixology and exotic bitters. Bartenders and home enthusiasts now frequently make their own, and there are many brands of artisanal bitters available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe carry several lines of craft-made bitters, as well as all the botanical roots and herbs you need for making your own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBitters are not only useful in cocktails: try adding them to your cooking and baking for an extra punch of flavour. Bitters do contain alcohol, but as they are used in minute quantities, it is akin to using vanilla extract. As such, they are also terrific in non-alcoholic beverages. The herbal compounds are excellent for settling upset stomachs and aiding in digestion.

Dale DeGroff is one of the Godfathers (perhaps THE Godfather) of the modern craft cocktail movement. He’s been behind the bar of countless influential cocktail bars since the 80s and has written numerous books about cocktail and bartending technique.
This excellent aromatic bitters, which is a collaboration between DeGroff and distiller T.A. Breaux, fills a distinct gap in most bitters brands’ ranges. It has a heavy allspice (pimento) flavour and strong bitterness, giving a twist to all kinds of classic cocktails. Considering that allspice is native to Jamaica, however, these bitters are particularly suited to rum and tiki drinks.
