Bittermens' New Orleans Coffee Liqueur blends New Orleans-sourced coffee beans from Brazil with roasted French chicory root. They then add a touch of vanilla and a handful of cacao nibs from Taza Chocolate, sweetening the final liqueur with a domestic Belgian-style candy syrup.
Bittermens' New Orleans Coffee Liqueur comes in a 375ml cork-topped bottle with an alcohol content of 24% ABV.
THE DUDE ABIDES
Avery Glasser
2 oz El Dorado 3 year old Rum
3/4 oz Bittermens New Orleans Coffee Liqueur
2.5 oz Cream
Method: Pour each ingredient, in that order, into a rocks glass filled with ice. Give a quick stir. Or, if you want, give it a quick dry shake and pour into a rocks glass filled with ice. Dust with powdered espresso if you have it. Sit back and enjoy. The dude abides.
Bittermens is also conscious of the using New Orleans's name for branding, and they would like to show their thanks to The Big Easy by giving back.
That's why Bittermens donates fifty cents to a New Orleans charity for every bottle of New Orleans Coffee Liqueur sold.
Bittermens started experimenting with chicory and coffee in early 2012 – two classic bitter flavors that have been part of New Orleans' iconic coffee blends for over a hundred years.
They came up with a cocktail bitter recipe based on these flavors and brought a sample of it down to New Orleans to see if local bartenders thought they were doing the city a service. As these tastings in New Orleans were happening, fate intervened. On the first day of a multi-day tour through the bars of New Orleans, the Bittermens ambassadors ended up at Mid-City's Twelve Mile Limit where they started talking to the bartender about local roasters making great coffee.
It turns out that the bartender, Anderson Stockdale, an award-winning barista, was just about to launch a coffee company. She suggested that Bittermens produce a New Orleans-style coffee liqueur.
