Amargo Chuncho Bitters - Cocktail Bitters - 40% - 75ml
Its deep dark color already hints at the quality before the beautiful fragrance of this Peruvian bitter hits the nose.
It is an absolutely exceptional aromatic bitter that would compliment many cocktails; not just the Pisco Sour, the national drink of Peru and Chile.
The Amargo Chuncho bitters are especially befitting to experiment and offer an exotic and somewhat less bitter alternative to the bitters from Angostura & Co.

Amargo Chuncho bitters are produced with over 30 different types of leaves, flowers, herbs, fruit peels and rinds, and spices from the Amazon and neighboring regions. The recipe is naturally a secret, but it is known that sources such as the tonka tree (dipteryx), caramel, cardamom, cloves, quinoa, and cinnamon serve as ingredients.
Otherwise the mixture is stored in wooden kegs to ripen for six months, before it reaches the 40% ABV when it is bottled. The Amargo Chuncho takes its name from an ethnic group of Amazon Indians that resisted the Spanish Conquistadors.
It is commonly used is in cocktails like in the well known Pisco Sour, but it can also be used across all areas of cooking.
