The famous Trinidadian bitter makers launched this bitters in 2020, made with Trinitario cocoa grown on the islands of Trinidad & Tobago.
Like the original Angostura Aromatic Bitters and the Orange bitters launched in 2007, this third flavour in the Angostura Bitters line-up is dressed in the familiar oversized paper label but is made distinctive by its purple cap.
Review and Tasting
Sampled on 13/10/2020
Appearance:
Clear, deep tawny amber with bronze highlights.
Aroma:
Pungent nutty cocoa with ginger cake, woody herbal aromas and Christmassy spice.
Taste:
Chocolate cake and ginger cake with gentle bitterness and assertive spice. The flavour turns more cacoa nib focussed as it develops.
Aftertaste:
Mildly bitter gentian finish with long lingering cacao nibs.
Overall:
As cocktail bitters go Angostura Cocoa Bitters sit on the mild side of bitterness but deliver cocoa nib and herbal botanical complexity to a cocktail. Bitters made for dashing rather than dripping.
