Our very own Margarita Bitters made by our mate Bob. This elixir is made with lavender and other (top secret) aromatic botanicals. Use 4 drops to lift a Margarita, add complexity and extenuate agave character. Rather than taking any profits from Bob's hard work for merely sticking our name on...

bitters that we really wanted him to make anyway, we asked Bob if he'd donate £1 from the sale of each 10cl bottle (50p per 5cl bottle) to The Drinks Trust, the drinks industry charity, and Bob, being a top bloke agreed. So "drop or dash, sip and donate."

Our go to Margarita recipe.

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 30/11/2018

Appearance:

(Batch No.1, best before Nov 2022) Clear, deep golden amber.

Aroma:

Dried lavender, caramelised pineapple, Liquorice Allsorts and pine needles.

Taste:

Bitter but not aggressively so and with a touch of balancing sweetness. Strong lavender, pineapple upside-down cake, liquorice root, spearmint, mace and crème caramel .

Aftertaste:

Perfumed lavender again, fading with spearmint, cinnamon heat and bitter gentian root.

Overall:

We love Bob and his bitters but we obviously particularly love these and appreciate Bob's persistence to nail the right balance of lavender and other botanicals to lift and add complexity to Margarita.
