 I seem to recall that it is lethal to drink this type of bitters unadulterated/from the bottle. I may well be wrong , can anyone enlighten? -  

 :I gather that is just nonsense: there are no toxins there, it is just a matter of taste. If you can tolerate such a pungent bitter flavor and the high alcoholic content, then you can drink it. I did it as a kid (Yeeeeccch, never again!!!), and that was 45 years ago! But then, who would do that, and why? The keen flavors and subtle scents of Amargo de Angostura are enjoyed most as much as the benefits of Homeopatic medicines are reaped best: in small, minute quantities.
