Flavor Notes: Spiced / Gourmand

Made in collaboration with Melissa Madara, author of The Witch's Feast, these bitters are based on the section of the same name in their book. In particular, these bitters focus on stories, history, tradition, and gathering. A celebration of the knowledge that comes before us, and the act of passing that on and continuing it through our interconnection with others. In Madara's chapter on Feast of the Ancestors, they look at historic feast foods, and these bitters play with some of those traditional flavors and bring them to life for your delight and curiosity. From Babylonian spice profiles from found clay tablets to the sweet taste of sacrificial cakes meant to placate wrathful gods, make yourself a draught of ancient wisdom. These bitters swirl together fresh elderberry wildcrafted by Melissa with heady cumin, biting peppercorn, resinous rosemary, citrusy coriander, and earthy nettle, all mellowed with a kiss of honey to make a bittersweet brew.
