Secrestat bitters

24% ABVFrance

Defunct French gentian-focused aperitif bitters called for in European cocktail recipe guides of the period. No longer produced. May possibly also have been produced in Argentina for a time. Cocktail additive during & after American Prohibition. Amer is the generic term for intensely-flavored aperitif/digestif bitters of French origin. Similar to the Italian “Amaro”. Amer tend to be lower proof than their Italian counterparts, and tend to be more focused on the aperitif role than the digestif role. Domestic imitations in some markets.
