A classic gentleman's cocktail gets a new twist, by using bittering agents like gentian root and cinchona bark along with burnt sugar, spices and a bit of orange peel. The mixer is aged in Willett bourbon barrels to allow the flavors to come together and ramp up the intensity.
It's super concentrated so a little bit goes a long way. Best with aged spirits. Stir 1 part No.1 with 4 parts rye whiskey in a glass with ice. Garnish with an orange peel.
Bittermilk is a Charleston, South Carolina–based brand founded in 2013 by husband-and-wife team Joe and MariElena Raya. Emerging from their experience at The Gin Joint, a renowned craft cocktail bar, Bittermilk was created to offer bar-quality mixers that simplify the art of cocktail-making at home.
Each of Bittermilk’s mixers is handcrafted in small batches using real, all-natural ingredients. The company employs culinary techniques such as barrel-aging, charring citrus peels, and infusing spices to craft complex, balanced flavors.
