A “black lemon” is an earthy, smoky, spice commonly used in middle eastern cooking and contrary to what the name suggests, is actually a dehydrated lime! But, the name of the spice was a mistranslation from Arabic to English ages ago–so we just work with what we’ve learned!
Despite not having any actual “black lemon” in the bitters, the bright and fresh lemon flavor has rich floral notes and a deep earthy spice reminiscent of the “black lemon” spice, hence the name Scrappy’s Black Lemon Bitters.
Scrappy makes great bitters. Love the Black Lemon!

This was my this favorite purchase. In fact, I’m glad I bought two. I will definitely order more ad it adds to my cherry rye cocktail as well as to our upcoming holiday beverages!

These are great bitters. Very chocolaty aroma and and awesome taste that lends much more to the drink than just chocolate. I love them.
