Tasting note

品飲筆記：前調有強烈的香氣，柑橘皮清新提亮，隨後是丁香、肉桂與溫暖的草本與苦根脈絡。入口集中、苦感鮮明但層次豐富，酒精帶來溫度感，尾韻乾爽且持久，帶點藥草與樹脂的餘味。生產者簡介：由安哥斯圖娜在千里達和多巴哥製作，經典配方世代相傳，瓶中呈現的是高度濃縮的香料語彙。釀造／製程：不是傳統釀酒，而是以高度中性酒精浸漬（maceration）與精選香料、果皮、樹根、香種種子等長時間融合，稍作熟成以讓風味互相融合，再經過過濾裝瓶。田地與原料：重要香料來自加勒比地區的產地小農，必要時搭配來自海外的優質香辛料，重視果皮的新鮮度與苦根的品質。飲用建議：不需醒酒，少量點綴即可改變雞尾酒輪廓，也可用於調味醬汁、巧克力或煙燻乳酪，為料理與飲品帶來深度與餘韻。

Tasting note: Intensely aromatic on the nose with bright citrus peel top notes over a deep spine of clove, cinnamon, bitter gentian and resinous herbals. The palate is concentrated and assertive—clean bitter core, warming alcohol and a complex spice parade that lingers into a long, dry, slightly medicinal finish. Producer notes: Crafted by Angostura Holdings Limited in Trinidad and Tobago, this iconic aromatic bitters is made from a proprietary blend of botanicals developed over generations and bottled at 44.7% ABV. Winemaking/production notes: Rather than fermentation, the recipe relies on careful maceration and infusion of roots, barks, seeds and citrus oils into a neutral high-strength spirit, followed by resting to marry flavours and gentle filtration. Barrel touch and maturation steps are modest and aimed at integration rather than heavy oak influence. Vineyard/botanical sourcing: Botanicals are sourced from local Caribbean growers for key spice elements and supplemented with selected imported spices to ensure consistency. Small-batch selection and quality control focus on freshness of peels and the balance of bitter roots. Service & use: No decanting required—use sparingly by the dash to lift cocktails, finish sauces or add depth to desserts and savoury dishes.
