In some other podcast universe this circus is called The Bitter Old Men Podcast because, well, let’s just say that we’re not exactly a trio of rainbows, cotton candy and kittens. But we’re in this here universe and we keep the bitterness as a delicate accoutrement to enhance the What We Watch When We Drink cocktail.
In this episode, bitterness meets bitters as we speak to Gene Cooper of the McMann & Tate Cocktail Company. We chat with Gene about his unique line of bitters, garnishes and salts to enhance homemade cocktails. We even made our drinks for the show using a few of these bitters to put them through our rigorous quality testing.
And we dug into Trees Lounge, the 1996 dark comedy written, directed, and starring Steve Buscemi with an all-star cast of newcomers back then. It’s a brooding and bitter movie which is perfect for bitter men and cocktails with bitters.
Let’s just call it The Bitters Episode of What We Watch When We Drink. Download or listen today instead of complaining about the water bill, cable guy, line at the bank, or the lousy service at your local greasy spoon. We get it. We’re bitter too.
