Fred Jerbis Vermut Bitter 34

Fred, aka Federico Cremasco, is a bartender who studied profumeria (the distilling of herbs) and an avid herbalist. He grows classic cooking herb, and for his spirits he farms most herbs himself and either purchases or forages the rest from within a 50km radius. Because he purchases everything fresh, and dries them himself, the herbs can change a bit from year to year and each harvest and batch yields a slightly different result.

For Bitter34, all infusions are done individually, using both hot and cold extraction methods, then blended and bottled. No added color. 12% sugar, less than half the average of large brands. Mild bitterness overall, but not sugary. Flavors of chamomile, thyme, citrus, vanilla and almond. Mix with Fred Jerbis Gin43 and Vermut25 for an ass-kicking Negroni! x
