Celery Bitters

While you may not see it much anymore, celery bitters used to be a popular flavor among 19th-century bartenders. A hint of citrus and celery seed help you craft antique recipes like gin martinis, rum daiquiris, and an aquavit vesper.

Scrappy's Bitters was founded by Seattle bartender Miles Thomas, a curious spirits man who learned to pair flavors in order to intensify the taste he was seeking, and came to understand that there were not only many ways to extract flavor from the same source, but that each yielded a different flavor. The journey proved fruitful: after years of experiments, Scrappy's launched in 2008 with a small team that's been handcrafting bitters in Seattle ever since.
