Woodford Reserve Bitters Sassafras and Sorghum

Product Description

Woodford Reserve Sassafras & Sorghum Bitters

Woodford Reserve Sassafras & Sorghum Bitters bring two distinctly American flavors to cocktails: the root-like sweetness of sassafras and the earthy, molasses-like depth of Kentucky sorghum. A few dashes add brightness, spice and rounded sweetness without requiring flavored syrup, making this a useful bottle for Old Fashioneds, Manhattans, whiskey highballs and creative nonalcoholic drinks.

What Makes It Distinct

• Sassafras and Kentucky sorghum flavor profile
• Designed for whiskey cocktails and modern mixed drinks
• Concentrated format—a few dashes are typically sufficient
• Part of the Woodford Reserve bitters collection
• Useful for both classic and experimental recipes

Flavor Notes

Aroma: Root spice, dark sugar and warm baking spice.

Taste: Earthy sorghum sweetness with sassafras, spice and a gently bitter backbone.

Finish: Lingering root-beer-like spice and rounded molasses character.

Food & Dessert Uses

Try a few drops in whipped cream, chocolate sauce, pecan desserts or coffee. Start sparingly and increase to taste, since bitters are concentrated.

Serving Suggestions

Add two dashes to a Manhattan for a root-spice variation, use in an Old Fashioned, or combine with rye whiskey and ginger ale for a Horse's Neck. It can also add complexity to soda water and zero-proof cocktails.
