Barrel Aged Bitters
In the early days of The Bitter Housewife, we did a little experiment to see if barrel aging our Aromatic bitters would make a difference. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that it did.
The time spent on oak gives these bitters a richer, deeper flavor with more pronounced vanilla sweetness. They are my go to for spirit forward drinks like a Manhattan.
Westward Hazelnut Bitters
Westward Whiskey is all about celebrating their Northwest heritage, so when asked if could make a Hazelnut bitters for a truly PNW inspired Old Fashioned I had to say yes.
Roasted Oregon-grown hazelnuts paired with the warmth of cinnamon and a subtle black pepper spice make for truly unique bitters that bring a bit of the Pacific Northwest to anything you add them to.

Who Is The Bitter Housewife?
That's me, Genevieve Brazelton. The Bitter Housewife is about both taking care of people and calling them on their bullsh*t.
