blueberry cardamom
We first released this flavor in May of 2017. Like a lot of our flavors it started out meant for the seasonal road - but became such a close contender to our Cedar & Currant in popularity we had to figure out a way to make this flavor year-round. Finally, in early 2019 it became a permanent fixture in our collection of unique flavors and to-date has been one our most highly sought after flavors!

Behind the Bitters
This flavor came about while our founder was enjoying some Mediterranean coffee at a local restaurant. The flavor profiles of Mediterranean coffee & tea are often filled with unique spices, like cardamom. Coffee often has notes of dried fruit, especially blueberries. So she set out to capture these flavor profiles she found in this incredible cup of coffee in a bottle of bitters. What we ended up with is a surprising and exciting flavor that gets daily use from our founder, especially in her morning coffee!
We add the most plump & luscious dried blueberries we can find to a good amount of freshly cracked whole green cardamom pods. We then add just a few other perfectly complementary ingredients like fresh lemon peel, a bit of lavender among other herbs, spices, bitter roots & barks which brings this whole flavor together.
We encourage use of this flavor in a myriad of recipes from vinaigrette to cakes and with savory dishes alike.
Made with real ingredients, always™.
