Debuting across merchant counters in 1964, the timeless “Gammel Dansk” Bitter Dram has remained steadfastly loyal to its original flavor and presentation. Preserving its legacy, the distinct bitter taste is a result of artful blending using a selection of 29 diverse spices and herbs sourced globally—ranging from angelica root, nutmeg, anise, ginger, to currant berries. While the individual contributions of these ingredients might not be directly discernible, the absence of any single spice would surely be quickly noticeable. The overall experience is characterized by a gratifying bitterness, culminating in a robust and enduring spiced finish. This dram’s hue exudes a warm copper tone.
