The iconic ingredient is made to a secret recipe in Trinidad & Tobago and is renowned across the world, receiving a royal warrant from Queen Elizabeth II in 1955. Created soon after the development of the cocktail, Angostura Bitters has played a large role in shaping the history of mixology and was a key ingredient in more than 90 recipes in the seminal Savoy Cocktail Book. Now celebrating its 200th anniversary, Angostura today produces aromatic, orange and cocoa bitters, as well as amaro and an award-winning rum.
