New bitters for a new era of cocktails! The Bitter Truth Chocolate Bitters blur the lines between old-world bitters and new-world flavours. The flavour profile is built around cacao, cinnamon, and vanilla suppyling chocolate-forward warmth while classic European bitter botanicals gentian and wormwood provide a dry, herbal backbone.

Dark, complex, and rich without being cloying. A dark chocolate nose leads the palate to bitter chocolate, cinnamon, and spice flavours that are supported by classic bitter botanicals.

Plays perfectly with dark spirits, rum, and tequila. Add a dash to a Manhattan to start exploring its complex flavour or use in a Tequila Old Fashioned to bring forward the spirit’s vegetal flavours.

About The Bitter Truth:

Munich bartenders Stephan Berg and Alexander Hauck were already experienced in making handmade bitters at their work when they decided to produce cocktail bitters to supply the burgeoning revival of historical and craft cocktails. Stephan owned a large collection of contemporary and historical bitters, some of which hadn’t been produced for decades. Thus he knew what the most well-known bitters of the world, past and present, tasted like and was considered a specialist in the area. Since 2006 The Bitter Truth has been producing bitters using the classic method of macerating roots, seeds, barks, fruits, herbs, and plants in an alcohol base. The design of the bitters bottle refers to old medicine bottles from the 19th century and the label was designed with old-fashioned floral ornaments reminiscent of the golden age of cocktails.
