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.

(Mostly) Well Constructed and Seals Tightly
This is my first experience with ready-to-fill sealable coffee bags. I normally buy coffee in resealable bags (12oz seems to be a standard size) and while convenient, they tend to be more expensive than buying coffee in cans. With these bags, I am now able to buy a large canister of coffee, empty it into the Maestri House bags, seal them up and enjoy the convenience of a resealable package at a more affordable price point. The bags are sturdy and thick and feature a "freshness" valve that allows you to squeeze excess air out without ambient air getting in. After filling the bag with fresh coffee, I sealed the top with my existing vacuum sealer (the kind used to preserve meat, etc. for freezing) and it worked great. The only issue I encountered, on the first bag I filled, was that the little tab that you hold in order to remove the thin foil strip that initially covers the resealable zipper tore off as soon as I started to remove it. It was a bit difficult to grab the remainder of that strip in order to remove it. That did not happen on the other 3 bags I've since used, so don't know if that's a common issue or not. Besides coffee, you could store a variety of items in these bags. We're thinking of filling them with candy (e.g. gummy bears), sealing them up, then giving them away as favors at upcoming graduation events. The included self-stick labels will allow us to personalize each bag.

Looks nice but will NOT hold a vacuum seal.
I bought these bags to put ground and whole bean coffee in. I have found that after vacuum sealing the bags, even double sealing them, the vacuum simply won't hold. I am using the vacuum sealer that I have been using in my kitchen for years, so I know it's not that. Maybe the one way valve isn't truly one way. Not sure, but I am disappointed.

Good quality bags
These bags are very well made. They have a rectangular base and will stand up when filled. There is a one way vent to allow gas to escape from coffee. There is a zip seal and they can be sealed with a heat sealer. Labels are also included. The plain black bag is very versatile and can hold about a pound of coffee or something similar.

Professional, attractive looking coffee bags.
Whether for gifting or selling or just using at home, these coffee bags are durable and high quality, and they look very professional! I have used a couple of them with no issue with my Mylar bag heat sealer and have been very pleased with the results. I think the price (currently $36.99 for 60) is a good deal considering the quality and quantity you get with this order, and I feel confident recommending these bags to others based upon my own personal experience with them.

Good quality bags
I'm far from a professional coffee roaster, but I do enjoy it. I used to use just little plastic bags when giving coffee to friends and family, but these work so much better! They are quite thick and just feel like they're quality. I do not have a mylar sealer, but I did figure out that a vacuum heat sealer will work. Just gotta run the heat part a couple times. Probably not as good as a real mylar sealer, but it works. Again, I'm not professional. I like that, being black bags, they include a roll of labels. Hard to write on black, so this was a nice addition. Overall, these are great bags.
