Bogart's Bitters

Historical-recreation cocktail bitters in the style of mid-19th-century recipes (often based on Jerry Thomas's Bogart's formula): cardamom, anise, mint, allspice, juniper, lemon peel, rose, and other warm-spice botanicals on a wine/brandy base. Used in pre-Prohibition historical recreations of Martinez, classic Manhattan variants, and old-style Old Fashioneds. Examples: The Bitter Truth Bogart's Bitters.
