Peychaud's Bitters

Size

Peychaud's Bitters are one of the oldest consistently available bitters brands in existence. It was created in New Orleans circa 1830 by Antoine Amédée Peychaud, an apothecary from Saint-Domingue (which is now Haiti). It is now produced by the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky.

Peychaud's Bitters are a bright crimson colour and have a flavour that is strongly anise-based and sweetly spicy. Called for in many modern drinks, but absolutely essential to the Sazerac, a traditional New Orleans cocktail.
