We source all ingredients locally grown (New Orleans) if available. Other items are chosen as close as we can to ensure the most regional product we can make.Bitters are the backbone and seasoning of a cocktail. When you think of food, if you don't put salt or pepper other seasonings on your food it tastes flat, one-dimensional. That's the function bitters serve in a cocktail. They do bring subtle flavors to the drink, but the main function is they act as a flavor enhancer. They amplify and bring out the flavor of the other ingredients and liquors. Bitters also can provide the same function when added to food recipes. Try them in sauces, soups, marinades, salsas, and condiments.Our bitters are primarily glycerin based. We extract flavor from ingredients in 3 ways glycerin, alcohol, and water. We remove most of the alcohol before bottling. This allows us to give you a more concentrated and varied level of flavor than using only 1 extraction method. While there is little alcohol to carry aromas out of the bottle when you smell, once you add it to an alcoholic beverage it "blooms" and all the aroma emerges. Our bitters are designed to be able to be used by everyone and for a variety of applications.
