Cocktails with
Angostura bitters
Angostura bitters is a highly concentrated aromatic bitters from Trinidad, made with gentian, spices and herbs. A few dashes round out the Old Fashioned, Manhattan and Whiskey Sour, and in the Pisco Sour they decorate the foam. Tip: it's measured in dashes, keeps practically forever and belongs in every home bar.
