Peychaud's Bitters
About Peychaud's Bitters
Peychaud's Bitters are regarded as an indispensable staple in any sophisticated bar, and we could not agree more. In fact, there is no Sazerac cocktail without Peychaud's. With production dating back to the 1800s, Peychaud's Bitters were originally created by Antione Amédée Peychaud, who also created the Sazerac cocktail. This little elixir can be surprisingly tricky to find these days.
Tasting Notes
Similar to Angostura Bitters in that they're a gentian-based bitters, but the taste profile differs according to Mr. Boston Drinks, it's light and fruity with hints of caramel, licorice, and cherry and spices. The aroma contains notes of mint and anise.
Suggested Serves

- Editor's note: try a Rum Sazerac, too!
