Sensory :
Aromatically expressive, these bitters open with a burst of bright orange peel underscored by a warm current of hickory smoke. On the palate, the citrus carries through with clarity, fresh, vibrant, and ever-so-slightly sweet, while the smoke builds in a dry, savory undertone reminiscent of charred wood and spiced embers. The combination creates a beautifully integrated profile that is equal parts brightness and brood, giving cocktails a memorable, refined twist. The use of real smoked citrus peel lends authentic texture and a haunting finish that lingers just long enough to intrigue.
