Tasting Notes





The Barsys Edge
One extra dash of bitters or too much syrup can shift the balance. Barsys eliminates that margin of error, letting you focus on the ritual - stirring, garnishing, sipping.

Sip Setting
Perfect for slow evenings, deep conversations, or as your “one and done” nightcap.

Garnish Game
Classic is best: an orange twist. For a bolder aroma, flame the peel before dropping it in.
