Valhalla Bitters Co is a Veteran owned and operated company. What started off as a hobby, has now turned into a full-fledged business. In my 7 years of tending bar, I've always known about bitters being used within craft cocktails like a Manhattan or an Old Fashion, but it wasn't until I begun to visit the more rustic restaurants and prohibition style bars is when I realized the important role that bitters plays in completing a cocktail. The word "Cocktail" was first defined in 1803 as a mixture of: 'a stimulating liquor, sugar, water, and bitters.' Bitters, on the other hand, are a high-proofed alcohol-, root-, botanical-, fruit-, or seed-based infusion said to contain medicinal value. Through the carefully paired combinations of these ingredients, Valhalla Bitters Co is able to create unique infusions that allows enhances the pallet of food and drinks.
