Scrappy's Black Lemon Bitters

Scrappy's Bitters is the first New American bitters company to commercially produce handcrafted bitters.

Although officially launching in 2008, the journey to develop and perfect our recipes and techniques began years ago.

They started with the simple idea that bitters could be better! Their focus - to create bitters using nearly all organic ingredients of the highest quality with no artificial flavors, chemicals, or dyes, all while respecting sustainability, and contributing to theircommunities in the process. These values and beliefs are what set them apart from other brands and make their bitters shine even brighter in your drinks and your dishes. They draw inspiration from the Old World, utilizing small-batch, handcrafted techniques that allow them to control the quality of our product on a level not yet achievable by robots. Scrappy's Bitters knows this because in their quest to make the best bitters possible, They have tested almost every modern-day commercial production technique and consistently discovered that there is no substitute for their original methods. Every component of thier bitters has been thoroughly considered and developed by them, by hand.

At Scrappy's, they believe that by making bitters with the finest ingredients, a touch of love, and a meticulous attention to detail, you'll be able to taste and smell their commitment to excellence.

Tasting Notes:

A "black lemon" is an earthy, smoky, spice commonly used in middle eastern cooking, and contrary to what the name suggests, is actually a dehydrated lime, but the name of the spice was a mistranslation from arabic to english ages ago. Despite not having any actual "black lemon" in this bitters, the bright and fresh lemon flavor has rich floral notes and deep earthy spices that are reminiscent of the "black lemon," hence the name.
