SAN FRANCISCO, USA – Luxardo, Italy’s preeminent artisanal liqueur producer known for creating essential ingredients for modern and classic cocktails, introduces Luxardo Aromatic Infused Cocktail Bitters: a new line of bitters available in five unique flavors – Cherry, Coffee, Chamomile, Orange and Rhubarb – designed to add complexity or a creative twist to a wide range of cocktails.
Produced with care in Italy, the “new line of Bitters reflects Luxardo’s dedication to quality and tradition, ensuring an authentic and sophisticated flavor profile” says the company.
“They are ideal for both classic and modern cocktails, bringing depth to drinks like the Old Fashioned, Manhattan, and Martini, among others.”
They are also perfect for cocktail experimentation and trying new, unique flavor combinations. The 200ml shelf-stable bottle, allowing for multiple uses, also makes it a practical addition for any home bar or professional mixologist’s collection.
“Given the global growth of cocktails and Luxardo’s legacy in Italian artisanal spirits that spans more than 200 years, we’re pleased to offer a new line of products that helps deliver the complexity and depth of flavor modern consumers expect from their cocktails,” said Matteo Luxardo, Luxardo Board Member and Export Director. “Bitters are like the seasoning of cocktails, giving top bartenders and at-home mixologists alike a way to experiment with different flavors and bring a new dimension to tried and true drinks.”
“We’re excited to be launching Hotaling’s first ever line of Bitters, in partnership with Luxardo, a proven pioneer in cocktail culture, furthering both of our positions as leaders in the cocktail space,” said Dan Leese, CEO of Hotaling & Co. “The Bitters are also a great low-ABV option, offering five unique variations on Bitters and Soda drinks.”
Luxardo Cherry Bitters bring a tart, fruity, and slightly spicy note to cocktails. They pair well with drinks like the Manhattan, Old Fashioned, and Whiskey Sour, where they enhance the richness of whiskey. The Cherry Bitters also complement gin-based cocktails and add a fruity twist to a Champagne Cocktail or a Margarita.
Luxardo Coffee Bitters deliver rich, roasted flavors with a hint of bitterness. They pair well with bold, dark spirits like whiskey and rum in drinks, such as an Espresso Martini, Old Fashioned, and Manhattan. They can also add a unique coffee flavor and change the profile or a Negroni or Boulevardier.
Luxardo Chamomile Bitters offer a delicate, floral, and herbaceous flavor that adds a unique depth to cocktails. Made from chamomile flowers, these bitters provide a subtle sweetness and calming aroma. Indulge in its rich, floral aroma, perfectly balanced by a gentle bitterness and a lingering hint of honey sweetness. These Bitters pairs well with cocktails such as a Martini, Gin and Tonic, Bee’s Knees, and Whiskey Sour.
Luxardo Orange Bitters deliver a zesty and aromatic burst of orange flavor, enhancing cocktails and culinary dishes with their bright, citrusy essence. Pairs well with whiskey, bourbon, gin, vodka and rum.
Luxardo Rhubarb Bitters are infused with the tartness of rhubarb root, offering a perfect balance of sweet and sour notes, enhanced by a subtle hint of bitterness. With a unique, tangy flavor, this vibrant addition pairs excellently with vodka, gin, or bourbon in an Old Fashioned or Negroni, among others.
Imported by San Francisco’s Hotaling & Co., an individual bottle of Luxardo Bitters has an SRP of $19.99 for a 200ml bottle. Luxardo Bitters are currently available nationally at retailers and bars and on Amazon.com.
