COCKTAIL
BITTERS
LARGEST SELECTION OF BITTERS IN THE WORLD
Having the largest selection of cocktail bitters is not exactly the most important thing in the world but having a wide range of flavors is very important. This range of flavor is something akin to your spice rack - offering the spectrum of nuance and specificity that aids the creativity of the cocktail maker. An artist can be creative with just a few colors of paint but give that same artist a world of color and you will truly see something amazing.
Vintage Orange
Dashfire
Vintage Orange
Our signature product, Dashfire Vintage Orange Bitters are Minnesota’s first (and only) barrel-aged bitters. Fresh orange rind is combined with quality bourbon and select spices, and then aged in a Minnesota-made white oak barrel to incorporate the flavor and sugars of the oak. Perfect for the classics like Old Fashioneds and Manhattans.

ORANGE
FOR USE IN:
Manhattan
Martini
Old Fashioned
The Liberal
Blood & Sand

A bright and fresh orange bitter. We utilize fresh orange rind for the aroma and some dry bitter orange for the bitterness with a cardamom and a hint of orange flower water that allow this bitter to shine in whiskey, gin and vodka cocktails. A classic reimagined.
GRAPEFRUIT
FOR USE IN:
Gin & Tonic
Martini
French 75

Our grapefruit bitters are made from fresh rind that is hand peeled. We not only use the outer rind but also a percentage of the pith to capture the full flavor and aroma that grapefruit has to offer. Bright, fresh and refreshing are just a few words to describe this bitter.
LEMON
FOR USE IN:
Honeymoon Cocktail
Golden Dawn
Flying Dutchman
Blue Moon
Vesper
...
This lemon bitter is bright, fresh and ultra pleasant. Fresh rinds are peeled and we take extra special care to fully submerge the rinds during maceration to bring out the freshest and more aromatic qualities of the lemon. A solid replacement for a lemon twist if sprayed on top of a cocktail.
LIME
FOR USE IN:
Ford Cocktail
Margarita
Doctor Cocktail
Vesper
Gin & Tonic
...
Lime is also a finicky botanical especially when it is fresh so we take extra care to draw out its finer qualities. If you try our lime bitters you will easily notice a fresh, more aromatic expression due to our use of fresh rind. Try dripping some on the edge of your margarita glass.
