Abbotts Bitters were originally produced in Baltimore and were popular across America before, like other aromatic bitters, becoming extinct. After tasting and testing a rare surviving original bottle, with the help of Jake Burger, Bob has recreated these classic bitters.
Bob and Jake's Abbotts Bitters took five years to perfect. Bob steeps a complex blend of botanicals in Scotch whisky, then filters and matures the bitters for six months in a medium-charred American oak barrel.
