Nicholas Callaway 5.0

This is my preferred bitter, adding an extra dimension of flavor to both American and Canadian rye whiskies. After sampling numerous aromatic bitters, this is the one I favor. To enhance your rye, this is the essential bitter.

Finley Parson 4.8

Tastes VERY much like Angostura, but in my opinion, it's better because it adds brighter flavors to cocktails.
