Angostura Bitters — Aromatic & Orange

Founded in 1824 by Dr. Johann Gottlieb Benjamin Siegert, a German-born surgeon in Simón Bolívar's army, in the town of Angostura, Venezuela — the family-owned House of Angostura relocated to Trinidad in 1875 amid regional unrest and remains headquartered there today. The exact recipe is a closely guarded secret known to only a handful of people at any time, and the bottle's oversized, mismatched label is a genuine 200-year-old production quirk. Aromatic Bitters (44.7% ABV) has been the house's core product since 1824; Orange Bitters followed in 2007.
