Tucked away in the picturesque Savoie mountains of France, Dolin has a long-standing tradition of producing exceptional spirits. One of their most celebrated creations is Bitter de Chambéry, a complex and versatile herbal liqueur.

The production of Bitter de Chambéry begins with carefully selecting a blend of botanicals. These botanicals, including herbs, spices, and roots, are sourced from local and regional suppliers. They are steeped in a neutral spirit base for a period of time, allowing their flavors to infuse and impart complexity.

Once the infusion process is complete, the liqueur is filtered and blended with a small quantity of wine. This addition of wine adds a touch of sweetness and depth to the final product. The resulting Bitter de Chambéry is then bottled and allowed to mature, allowing the flavors to harmonize and develop.

The botanicals used in the production of Bitter de Chambéry vary but include wormwood, gentian root, angelica root, and citrus peels. These ingredients contribute to the liqueur's distinctive bitter-sweet flavor profile.

Bitter de Chambéry is a versatile beverage with a wide range of uses in cocktails. It can be used as a modifier to add complexity and depth to various drinks. Some popular cocktails featuring Bitter de Chambéry include the Negroni, the Boulevardier, and the Old Pal.

Bitter de Chambéry can also be enjoyed on its own, either neat or over ice. Its complex flavor profile makes it a delightful after-dinner drink.
