Fee Brother's Variety Packs (Enthusiasts' Collection)

Three things to keep in mind: - Everything in here is fairly sweet. 'Bitters' is a historical term, but these are really not very bitter. For instance, Regan's Orange Bitters are a much more bitter orange flavor (like concentrated peel) than the orange here. - If you limit yourself to just alcoholic drinks you're cheating yourself. I have a Sodastream, and adding these 'bitters' to the carbonated water tastes fantastic. - You're not saving a lot on this. At current price, $100/12 = $8.33 per bottle. But if you get the free shipping suddenly it's reasonable. And having the selection is fairly liberating. Once you have the set of 12 it's time to figure out what to do with them. Your flavors are: - Fruit: Peach, Lemon, Grapefruit, Cherry, Rhubarb, Cranberry, Orange. Yes, technically rhubarb isn't a fruit. - Other: Mint, Plum, Old Fashioned, Celery, Aztec Chocolate. The fruit flavors speak for themselves. If you can't think of a hundred things to do with these (at a minimum, fuzzy navel, or gin + flavor + tonic water) you shouldn't be ordering this in the first place. Imagine concentrated flavor + sweet and you know what you're getting. The others are more interesting. The mint bitters contribute greatly to a mojito. Celery works fantastic with tomato juice or bloody mary mix. The plum is very cinnamony, and the Old Fashioned is like the plum but with extra heavy spices. The Aztec Chocolate Bitters are fairly disgusting on their own, but when paired with a good spiced rum like The Kraken are quite amazing, and though I haven't tried it yet I imagine they'd work well with a mole' sauce. So to summarize - you can't do anything with these on their own, but that would be like drinking the output of a duck press. You are buying a set of 12 flavor enhancers, and this set is great for that. And you only need a few shakes, so each bottle will last for years.

Great selection of flavors at a great price!

These were great! They were a gift for someone and we used a couple of them this past weekend. Did not disappoint.

Sadly, the one i most wanted to try, the grapefruit, was just okay. Overall, though, these are excellent, well worth the money. I especially like the Aztek Chocolate bitters.

Fun! Orange, Grapefruit used most.

Got this as a gift for my buddy whose always making wild cocktails. He loves it. Lots of options to play with flavor profiles with lots of different liquors and such.

Best bitters around

good variety; decent sized bottles; very handy if you like "spiced" drinks
