Founded in 2009, Dr. Adam Elmegirab's Bitters was formed “for bartenders, by bartenders,”, creating a fully transparent brand where honesty and authenticity is at the heart of all that they do. Their sole desire is to create a range of unique, quality, hand-crafted products for the growing demands of the drinks industry, with the spotlight being shone on botanicals and the influence they have in the cocktail world.
In keeping with traditional production techniques, all the bottlings are hand crafted, combining high quality spirit purchased from England's Langley Distillery with specially selected botanicals sourced from across the globe. Dr. Adam Elmegirab's Bitters are all produced with natural - and organic in every case possible - ingredients with no glycerin, preservatives, or synthetic flavorings and colorings.
Dandelion and Burdock
Originally a type of light mead that dates back to the 1300s, the original recipe was thought to have been created by the Italian priest Saint Thomas Aquinas and was famed for its alleged medicinal properties, similar to the many cocktail bitters that followed in later years. Taking inspiration from Dandelion & Burdock formulae used to produce sodas and beers, Dr. Elmegirab successfully devised a recipe which better represent the style associated with cocktail bitters.
