Angostura Aromatic Bitters Non-Beverage Concentrate from Germany
Angostura Aromatic Bitters Non-Beverage Concentrate is a highly concentrated herbal extract used primarily as a flavoring agent in cooking and cocktail mixing. Its extreme bitterness and low alcoholic strength (below 80% vol) render it unsuitable for consumption as a beverage, which places it under tariff item 2208.90.30 for Angostura bitters.
