Dr Hostetter's Bitter Liqueur

The original Dr J Hostetter's "Celebrated" Stomachic Bitters was formulated in the first hall of the 19th Century by native Pennsylvanian Dr Jacob Hostetter and became popular with the clientele. In 1853, his son David commercialized the formula - macerated only in the pure essence of Monongahela Rye - that would go on to sell more than 50,000,000 bottles! During the American Civil War the bitters were rationed to Union Soldiers perhaps dubiously as a "positive against the fatal maladies of the Southern swamps and the poisonous tendency of the impure rivers and bayous" and was enjoyed so universally that it found its way onto the back bar of every respectable saloon in America and beyond! Today's formulated bitter combines original ingredients with aromatics and botanicals, rose and candied fruit and the Red Carmine extract of the cochineal cactus beetle.

Gabriel Boudier Matcha Liqueur

Gabriel Boudier Matcha Tea Liqueur is an elegant and contemporary creation from Maison Gabriel Boudier in Dijon, France, inspired by the Japanese matcha ritual. Both intense and delicate, it reveals the vegetal purity of matcha with a subtle umami touch, making it an exceptional choice for creative cocktails and pastry applications alike. Why You'll Love It Maison Gabriel Boudier has been crafting liqueurs in Dijon since 1874, combining traditional French expertise with a spirit of innovation that has made them one of the world's most respected liqueur houses. This Matcha Tea Liqueur is one of their most distinctive creations, bringing together the ancient Japanese tea ceremony tradition and the precision of Burgundian liqueur-making. The result is a liqueur of remarkable aromatic complexity, freshness, and balance that stands apart from anything else in the category. Production Crafted from a delicate infusion of matcha powder in a hydroalcoholic base, a precise process that extracts the full aromatic richness of the tea while preserving its natural freshness. Careful filtration and a meticulously balanced blend result in a clear, harmonious liqueur with perfect equilibrium. Bottled at 20% ABV. Tasting Notes A fresh, green bouquet on the nose, led by matcha tea and enriched with a subtle herbal note. The palate opens with a soft, silky entry that gives way to an intense matcha character, with gentle bitterness and umami notes. The finish is long, balanced, and delicately persistent. Serving Suggestions Reveals its full potential in creative cocktails with vegetal or tangy notes, pairing especially well with gin or white rum.
