Tall, dark and yes, somewhat beautiful, absolutely rich and original: New bitters for a new era of cocktails!
The Bitter Truth Chocolate Bitters blurs the lines between old fashioned bitters and new world flavors. Deep chocolate notes are supported by classic bitter flavors and accentuated with a hint of spice. Cocoa butter and dark chocolate seduce the nose. Hints of vanilla, cinnamon and bitter notes of gentian and wormwood are evoked on the palate.
The Bitter Truth Chocolate Bitters play exceptionally well with sweet vermouths and all kinds of aged spirits such as whiskey, rum, tequila and brandy. Add a dash to a Manhattan or Negroni to begin exploring its complex flavors or use it in a Tequila Old Fashioned to bring out the spirit’s vegetal qualities.
About The Bitter Truth
Since 2006, Germany’s The Bitter Truth has done its part to contribute to the spread of bitters and cocktails. It all started during a visit to the London Bar Show in June 2006. At that show, bartenders Stephan Berg and Alexander Hauck from Munich created the idea to produce and distribute cocktail bitters, as they were hard to find in Germany and many other places.
Both already had considerable experience producing hand-crafted cocktail bitters for the bars they worked at. Stephan also owned a large collection of historic bitters, some of which had not been produced for decades. Thus he knew what the most famous bitters in the world tasted like.
