Blue Gum Bitters (B.G.B.)

My brother was pretty excited to dig his first Western Bitters! Pretty cool since he really likes Gin bottles too.... What do you get when you mix a BITTERS & a GIN? A "Blue Gum" Grin :)
One must wonder what this Eucalyptus Tree inspired Bitters concoction would have tasted like, right?

  1. Great Picture of Kevin, Did he rip it out of the soil with his bare hands? Looks like a lot better stuff than what we dug last time, HaHa.

  2. Do any yellow or green BGB examples exist above ground ?

  3. I though that you guys said that weren't any good ones on SoCal? Looks plenty good to me. Nice job and great photos.

  4. There are some good holes in SoCal, just like anywhere else...but there are a lot fewer areas to dig pre-1885 holes than compared to the bay area or gold rush country. Any time a fifth or bitters comes out is an extraordinary dig, and that includes even the common stuff like Hostetter's, Peruvian's, and any sort of local whiskies.
