ABERDEEN, SCOTLAND

Originally launched in 1828, Boker’s Bitters soon became famous as the preferred brand by the best bartenders during the Golden Age of cocktails. Unfortunately, the company did not survive Prohibition. Referencing receipts dating back to 1853 and original tasting notes, as well as having procured a small remnant sample of the original Boker’s, Adam Elmegirab was able to resurrect this classic bitters in July of 2009.

If you ever meet Adam, be sure and give him a high five, because now you can have a historically accurate Martinez, Crusta, and Japanese Cocktail. This same level of zeal and dedication goes into all his other bitters, too.
