The name of this bitters brand literally translates to 'old Danish' and it is something of a cult product in its native Denmark. Unusually for a 'bitters', this is a relatively modern brand, launched in 1964 to capitalise on the growth in popularity of bitter liqueurs.

Gammel Dansk is flavoured with 29 different herbs, berries and aromatic oils and undergoes a three-month marrying period prior to bottling. (We note that recent samples are 38% alc./vol. while older samples are 42% alc./vol..)

Avaliação e degustação

Experimentado em 01/05/2011

Aparência:

Clear, rusty brown with golden highlights.

Aroma:

Cracked black pepper and sweet cinnamon and nutmeg nose with warm cloves and red berry fruit.

Sabor:

Aggressive bitter, dry, pine juniper palate with tannin, and much need sweet fruity flavours.

Aftertaste:

Aromatic, liquorice finish with fruit compôte struggling for attention over the bitterness. We'd score this highly if presented in a bitters bottle with a dropper and aimed at being dripped into Manhattans.
