Workhorse Rye Barrel Aged Spiced Cider Bitters (Limited Edition)
Workhorse Rye Barrel Aged Spiced Cider Bitters (Limited Edition) Be the first one to write a review

These are best in spirit-forward cocktails of almost any kind ranging from the Old Fashioned (you pick the spirit, it will sing) to any aperitif/digestif you can imagine.

The predominant ingredient in these rippin’ bitters extracted from house distilled rye (Willamette, grown by Camas) and red corn (Oaxaca, grown by Masienda) is Newtown Pippin cider apples from 5 Mile Orchard, organically grown 50 miles from the distillery. With the help of their friends, they crushed tons of apples, naturally fermented them into cider and then they blended the cider with a high proof maceration of Cloud Forest Yellow Cardamom, Royal Cinnamon, Ea Sar Peppercorn, Pemba Clove, Eleuthero, Suma, and Gentian.

Super different from any other Apple Bitters on the market: the flavor profile is not based on sweet baking spice/apple pie. Instead, the focus is on exemplifying the flavor profile of this cider apple.

One great thing about bitters is that they are great flavorings for sparkling water when you want a non-alcoholic, tasty beverage!

3.3 ounces can make between 80 and 130 cocktails, so a little goes a long way and the bottle should last months and months and months.

This is released once a year, we were lucky to get 24.
Grab them while you can!

3.3 ounces (note they use a 4 ounce glass bottle so the bottles don't look "topped up" but we guarantee there is at least 3.3 ounces of bitters inside); note some bottles have a cork top as pictured, some have a metal screw top. They make killer products so we are fine with their eccentricities.

Handmade Brittle Torrone in Red Tin (Scaldaferro)
Handmade Brittle Torrone in Red Tin (Scaldaferro)
Average rating:
average rating 100%

The only company in the world which prepares nougat totally by hand!!

Nougat, with almonds and honey, in a red tin.

Mandorlato Scaldaferro is a confectionery product composed of toasted almonds mixed with honey, sugar, and egg whites whipped until the mixture becomes white, creamy, and soft: everything is cooked very slowly.

The cooking is in a bain-marie over many hours. This is one of many steps that separates Scaldaferro from everyone else as industrial nougats cannot invest the time, the patience, and the attention to detail for their mass-produced torrone. Scaldaferro's hand-made torrone is perfectly crumbly and immediately recognizable, characterized by a “frothy” texture and a slightly amber color.

After cooking, the dough is poured directly into the tins without further processing.

The ingredients, all the best of the best, are one of their "secrets". They use a special blend of honeys, and the Italian almonds are carefully selected and roasted directly by the Scaldaferro family. This great care, this hand-made process, is what makes Scaldaferro Torrone the best in the world.

Ingredients: ALMONDS, honey, granulated sugar, glucose syrup, egg white, vanilla, wafer (potato starch, water).

It does not contain preservatives, dyes, flavors. Gluten free product. It may contain traces of other nuts in shell.

Note they pour the hot nougat directly into the tins onto EDIBLE paper (a.k.a. wafer). So you can peel the paper off, or you can just eat it "As is".
