Review #51 - Mad Lab Bitters

Mad Lab Bitters

I have tasted through a few local bitter companies in the past, Mad Lab Spirits are known more for amazing products like their Ulker Raki but their bitters line is something special. Really enjoyed tasty these obscure flavors.

ABOUT MAD LAB

Mad Laboratory started off as a long time dream and began to be realized early 2013. Thus began a long difficult journey to opening and operation of the Lab. With almost no budget to speak of we began putting together the equipment needed, scrounged and borrowed, re-purposed and rebuilt, we were able to set up the basics of what we wanted to create.

With a tremendous amount of support from friends and family we managed to get a logo and label designed, still built, fermentation tanks installed, fire suppression upgraded, the locations drainage and ventilation upgraded, plans drawn, re-drawn, and re-drawn again. 

 Our still was built from donated tanks and put together by a talented welder friend, put together in the configuration that we felt would produce the finest end product. Direct-fire pot still, with a thumper and shotgun condenser, allowing us to produce a smooth spirit, with the ability to retain flavours that we wanted to remain in the finished product. The flame from the still provides a toasty, almost caramel like finish, making Mad Laboratory spirits a rich and wonderful experience.

All this came together to where we are today, producing a fantastic spirit, something we are very proud of, and hope to continue on long into the future.
