Influenced by the allure of classic Italian orange bitters but with a touch that’s uniquely Australian, this bitters from 78 Degrees imparts a fragrance of Riverland orange. The palate brings bitterness, freshness, and zesty citrus notes.
Why we love it
This locally crafted spirit makes a regular appearance when we’re mixing cocktails calling for an Italian-style bitters. It captures the essence of tradition and heritage while supporting a homegrown brand that uses local ingredients.
About 78 Degrees
Founder Sacha La Forgia, has quite literally lived up to his name, hand forging 78 Degrees’ copper still back in 2015. Named for the temperature that they extract all their botanicals (which is lower than most other distilleries), 78 Degrees has grown equally well-known for their whiskey as they are for their gin.
