Angostura bitters and rum from Trinidad since 1824
Angostura is one of the world's most renowned names in bitters and Caribbean rum—and has been since 1824. What began as a medicinal recipe developed by the German physician Johann Gottlieb Benjamin Siegert in the Venezuelan city of Angostura was later relocated to Trinidad , where it remains to this day. The recipe for the Aromatic Bitters is considered one of the best-kept secrets in the world of spirits: only five people know the exact composition of the more than 40 herbs and spices.
Aromatic bitters are an indispensable ingredient in classic cocktails—whether it's an Old Fashioned, Pink Gin, or Trinidad Sour. But Angostura is much more than just a bar classic: The rum line ranges from the approachable White Oak to mature bottlings like the 1919 or the Cask Collection range, which combines barrel aging in ex-bourbon and sherry wood. Aromatically, the rums range from vanilla and dried fruit to a warm oak note.
Whether you want to refine a cocktail, enhance a recipe with bitters, or drink a mature Caribbean rum neat — Angostura's range offers the perfect introduction to the world of Trinidadian spirits culture for every occasion.
