Introducing Fred's Bitter 34 - a new level of Italian 'bitter' that surpasses even the classic and renowned Campari. While Campari is commonly used in aperitivi cocktails, Fred's Bitter 34 stands out with its natural and stunning orange hue, along with an appropriate level of bitterness and citrus flavors. What sets it apart is its lower sugar content, which provides the perfect balance that we seek in spirits.
Crafted from 34 botanicals, the drink uses three different methods of extraction - cold maceration of dried plants, hot maceration, and steam distillation - all with nearly pure alcohol. Among the ingredients are gentian, angelica, wormwood, orange and lemon peel.
Tasting Notes
Color: tending to orange, entirely from the natural color of the botanicals; no coloring added, unusually.
Aroma: herbal and orange notes; complex, rounded and balanced.
Flavor: delicately but persistently herbaceous; bitter, but balanced. The perception of alcohol is subtle, due to the use of a traditional recipe with a small amount of sugar.
Body: shows bitter notes from the maceration of botanicals like gentian root, and richness from the other botanicals that give complexity and persistence. The finish is soft and round thanks to the citrus.
