The Bitter Truth Aromatic Bitters (often officially labeled as Old Time Aromatic Bitters) is a premium, highly concentrated cocktail flavoring designed to add structure, complexity, and balance to mixed drinks. Launched in 2006 by Munich bartenders Stephan Berg and Alexander Hauck, it was one of the flagship products that helped ignite the modern cocktail bitters revival. Inspired by authentic 19th-century recipes, this German-crafted classic is widely favored for its deep spice profile and natural ingredients.

Flavor Profile & Characteristics

  • The Nose: A rich and heady aroma dominated by intense clove and warm gingerbread, rounded out by subtle, sweet tutti-frutti notes.
  • The Palate: Deeply complex and bitter with prominent baking spices, including cinnamon, cardamom, anise, and ginger, rooted by an earthy hint of gentian bark.
  • Specifications: Bottled at 39% ABV (78 proof) and typically packaged in a distinctive 200 ml bottle styled after vintage 19th-century medicine bottles.
Essential Cocktail Applications

Because aromatic bitters are traditionally designed to cut through sweetness and anchor wood-aged spirits, they are an essential bar tool. You only need 1 to 3 dashes per drink to transform its character.
  • The Old Fashioned: The ultimate pairing. A few dashes balance the sugar and enhance the oak and caramel notes of your favorite bourbon or rye whiskey.
  • The Manhattan: Adds a beautiful layer of warm spice that marries perfectly with rye whiskey and sweet vermouth.
  • The Champagne Cocktail: Dropping a dash onto a sugar cube before topping it with chilled Champagne creates a lively, effervescent classic.
  • Modern Classics: Works exceptionally well in an Old Cuban, a classic Horse’s Neck, or a refreshing, low-ABV Lemon Lime Bitters.

Our classic London Dry style gin. A clean, zesty, juniper-forward gin which balances softness with bright citrus. Launched in 2010, this is our modern London Dry gin, with a nod to Scotland in its recipe including native plants and botanicals.A unique blend of fourteen botanicals includes lavender, pine buds, mulberries and cobnuts. Orange peel, lemongrass and lime peel contribute lively citrus notes. Created by hand in our West End and Leith distilleries, this is a delightfully crisp gin with a distinctively smooth finish.

Bottled at 43% ABV, our classic Edinburgh Gin makes for a refreshing G&T, best served with a zesty orange twist and premium Indian tonic water. Its distinctive flavour lends itself perfectly to classic cocktails such as Martinis, Negronis, and Gimlets.

The Bitter Truth Golden Falernum is a premium, exotic spiced liqueur built on a base of full-bodied Caribbean rum. Unlike many commercial falernum's that rely on neutral grain spirits, this German-crafted liqueur delivers a much more assertive, complex, and genuinely spicy profile. Boasting an 18% ABV, it stands out as significantly stronger and less cloying than the industry-standard 11%–15% alternatives, making it an excellent standalone sipper over ice or a powerful backbone for cocktails.
 
Flavor Profile & Character

  • The Aroma: Notes of fresh, candied lime zest, ginger root, seashells, and hot cross buns with a subtle hint of festive baking spices.
  • The Taste: A vibrant "calypso of flavor" that transitions from fiery fresh ginger, clove, and allspice to smoother undertones of vanilla and almond. It carries a prickly heat reminiscent of an atomic fireball candy, rounded out by a dash of Bajan-style sweet pepper sauce heat.
  • The Finish: Intensely long, slightly tart, and dry, leaving a lingering prickle of bitter lime zest and warm ginger heat on the palate.
How to Use It

  • Tiki & Tropical Classics: It adds immense tropical depth to mid-century Tiki drinks like the Zombie, Mai Tai, or Three Dots and a Dash.
  • Aged Spirits Companion: Its robust rum base allows it to pair beautifully with aged whiskey, dark rum, brandy, or calvados.
  • Neat or On the Rocks: Thanks to its complex body and balanced sweetness, it works incredibly well as a standalone digestif.

The Bitter Truth Celery Bitters is a highly acclaimed, savory cocktail ingredient that commercially revived 19th-century styles of defunct celery bitters. Bottled at 44% ABV in Germany, it won the "Best New Cocktail Ingredient" at Tales of the Cocktail in 2010 and remains a gold standard for adding vegetal complexity to savory, herbal, and gin-based drinks.
 
Flavor Profile & Tasting Notes
Unlike basic aromatic styles, this tincture offers a distinctively crisp, green, and earthy sensory experience:
  • Aroma: Rich and fresh with a bouquet of white grapes, Sencha tea, lemongrass, ginger root, and green celery leaf.
  • Palate: A complex mix of dominant fresh celery flavors accompanied by coriander seed, chicory, and orange peel.
  • Finish: A clean, slightly peppery, and rooty bitter dry finish.

Cocktail

It is remarkably versatile for transitioning sweet drinks into dry, sophisticated builds, acting as an optimal companion for grassy spirits like tequila or cachaça:
  • The Bloody Mary & Red Snapper: Taking savory vodka or gin-based morning cocktails to the next level by highlighting fresh garden notes.
  • The Dry Martini: Just a dash or two enhances the botanicals in a classic gin martini.
  • Gin & Tonic: Adds a subtle herbal dimension that pairs perfectly with spicier or dry gins.
  • Classic "Corpse Revivers": Historically essential for rebuilding traditional morning picks like the Bullshot or Prairie Oyster.
