Beechworth Bitters is the brainchild of chef Michael Ryan (Provenance) built from a library of 120 botanicals championing the local area. This is Beetlejuice. "An aperitif based on rhubarb, citrus and flowers. A gentle bitterness, predominantly from gentian and barberry, and a judicious use of sugar, creates a well balanced pre dinner drink.Its carmine colour comes from the rhubarb and blood orange in the recipe, but also from the cochineal bug. ‘Say it three times before dinner, what could go wrong’"
