Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters 4oz is a small-batch German orange bitters produced by Bitter Truth GmbH in Pullach, Bavaria, bottled at 39% ABV (78 proof). Created by bartenders Stephan Berg and Alexander Hauck, this expression stands apart from mainstream orange bitters through a deliberate, slow maceration process and an ingredient list free of caramel coloring, dyes, or artificial additives. The result is a lean, focused bitters that foregrounds genuine bitter orange character backed by assertive spice.

Tasting Notes:

Aroma: Traditional marmalade leads the nose, followed by sweet cinnamon and nutmeg. Underneath, bergamot and tea leaf add an unusual layer of complexity that distinguishes this from straightforward citrus bitters.

Taste: Cardamom and caraway arrive immediately on the palate, delivering a bold, almost aquavit-like spice impression. The mid-palate fills with bitter calamondin orange, orris root, and a burst of gentian-driven bitterness. As the flavor develops, the spice recedes and genuine orange peel oil takes center stage.

Finish: The finish is medium in length, marked by lingering orange peel oil and a dry, herbaceous bitterness. Clove notes persist and add warmth, though they can assert themselves firmly in the final moments.

How to Drink Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters:

These bitters excel as a cocktail modifier where you want orange depth without sweetness or artificiality. Two to three dashes in an Old Fashioned bring a spice-forward orange element that complements aged bourbon or rye. In a Dry Martini, a single dash adds botanical complexity that bridges gin and dry vermouth. They also work exceptionally well in a Blood and Sand, where the caraway and cardamom notes amplify the Scotch backbone while the orange character ties together the cherry and citrus components.

Best For:

  • Home bartenders building a serious bitters collection
  • Upgrading classic stirred cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned
  • Professional bar programs seeking craft-level cocktail ingredients
  • Gifting to cocktail enthusiasts who appreciate artisanal bar tools

Frequently Asked Questions:

What does Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters taste like? Expect bitter orange peel, bold cardamom, and caraway spice with a marmalade-like nose and a dry, herbaceous finish. The overall profile is lean and focused rather than heavily sweetened.

How does Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters compare to Regans' Orange Bitters No. 6? Berg & Hauck's delivers a more singular, spice-driven orange profile with pronounced cardamom and caraway, while Regans' No. 6 tends toward a broader, more straightforwardly citrus-forward flavor. The slow four-week maceration in Berg & Hauck's also yields a drier, less syrupy body than Regans'.

Is Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters good for beginners? Yes, the 4oz bottle is a low-commitment entry point into quality bitters, and two to three dashes in a simple Old Fashioned will immediately demonstrate the difference craft bitters make in a drink.

Where is Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters made? They are produced by Bitter Truth GmbH in Pullach, a town in the Bavarian alpine region of Germany. Orange oil, bitter orange peel, cardamom, caraway, and coriander are macerated in natural grain spirit for four weeks before straining, diluting, and bottling.

What foods pair well with Berg & Hauck's Orange Bitters? Add a few dashes to sauces for duck or pork to introduce citrus-spice depth. They complement dark chocolate desserts, marmalade-glazed dishes, roasted root vegetables with warm spices, and charcuterie boards featuring aged cheeses.

Why Buy Berg & Hauck's?

Stephan Berg and Alexander Hauck are working bartenders who formulated their bitters line to fill gaps they identified behind the bar — a perspective that shapes every recipe in the range. The production method relies on a four-week slow maceration of carefully selected botanicals in small batches, with no caramel, dyes, or artificial flavor shortcuts. Spirits Review called it "a minimalist, lean, but excellent orange bitters," a description that captures its design philosophy precisely. At 39% ABV, it carries enough strength to integrate cleanly into cocktails without diluting the drink's proof or structure.

This is the only socks I wear Under Armour because they stay in place I wear a size 8, but they’re more comfortable with a large instead of a medium, but I wear both because I have them already and you can pull them to stretch them out a little bit

Great fit, truly doesn’t slide off heel

I’ve scoured all the lands looking for a no-show sock that was 1) thin, 2) quality, soft, breathable material, 3) didn’t dig into my feet/heels, 4) doesn’t shrink, and most importantly 5) stays on the back of my heel without a bulky non-slip rubber piece and these check all the boxes! Perfect for low profile women’s work shoes like Keds, etc. Not low enough for most flats though. I wear a women’s size 9.

So good - I’m buying MORE.
Number of Items: 3, Color: White (3-pairs), Size: Medium
I’m gonna give you more detail than you need about why I’m buying these socks again. I’ve been the mom of girl athletes. I’ve been a model and a fashion director. I’ve worn every brand of shoe on the planet and never found a shoe that did NOT find a vulnerable spot on my foot to rub raw. Even my beloved white Jack Purcell sneakers. With that said - I don’t like socks. I’ve bought a TON of them in 35+ years.....all major brands. They shift. They lose their shape. They get holes in them and wear out too fast. Not these. I retired this year, and knowing I’d be in sneakers a lot, traveling, sightseeing ...... I bought these 6 months ago and have worn them constantly. I’ve traveled with them. I’ve washed them in hot water and bleach. The socks are like brand new. They are exactly the right cut so as not to be seen in a basic sneaker. The little silicone patch on the heel stays put. Not once have I had to dig down into my shoe and pull the sock back up. The socks have stayed soft and EXACTLY the same as the day they were new. Like I said - I am back to buy them again. Great quality!
