BALTIMORE, MD — Baltimore Spirits Company (BSC) announced the release of a new addition to their Baltamaro line of award-winning liqueurs. Baltamaro Volume 4: Chamomile Bitter will be officially released Friday, August 13th at noon in their newly-opened distillery cocktail bar and tasting room in Medfield’s Union Collective.
The new Baltamaro is the first to be added to BSC’s line of amaris since they were first introduced in 2017. Volume 4 is macerated with 18 different botanicals, including long pepper, chamomile, grapefruit, and gentian root, and is BSC’s take on a classic bitter aperitif. Its distinct rosy color comes from the inclusion of carmine powder; a red dye made from the shells of the cochineal insect that has been in use for centuries in amaro making.
“BSC prides itself on combining traditional elements with modern and innovative techniques, and this new amaro is definitely a reflection of that,” said Max Lents, BSC co-founder and CEO. “Our goal was to create the perfect companion to our Shot Tower Gin line, and, after a long time in development, we think we succeeded.”
Baltamaro Volume 4 (60 proof, 30% ABV) will be available starting this Friday at the BSC distillery for $29.99 and will be released for distribution shortly thereafter.
