Lab Report: Pharoah-Matic [Aromatic Bitters]

Purpose: To add robust, classic, wood-driven flavors and aromatics to a drink without muddling, or adding syrup and powder.

Outline: Usually 1.5mL-3.75mL (2 to 5 droppers) is added to a drink, varying based on other ingredients and total drink size. Each dropper has mL increments listed on it for accuracy and precision with every cocktail.

Experiment: Tested with coffee, hot tea, hot cider, egg nog, hot chocolate, chocolate milk, as well as many alcohol-forward drinks such as Manhattans, old fashioneds, sazeracs, the Vieux Carre, milk punches, hot toddies, the Negroni, and the Rusty Nail.

Observations: Pharoah-Matic [Aromatic] bitters adds a rich, dry, spiced, woody, almost dusty flavor to all drinks listed under experiment, and many more untested.

Data: Pharoah-Matic is a 50% abv solution of water, cane sugar distillate, ginger, gentian root, chocolate, cocoa butter, cinnamon, juniper, cedar, and rosemary. Sample and full size bottles are available. The full size bottles will last 30-60 cocktails.
