Introduction
Dhōs Bittersweet is a non alcoholic spirit alternative originating from Sheridan, Oregon, in the United States. It is handcrafted at Ransom Distillery, a pioneering craft spirits producer with over 25 years of heritage in artisanal techniques for whiskey and gin.
Spirit Description
This non alcoholic aperitif presents a vibrant ruby hue and is inspired by the profile of classic Italian bitter liqueurs. The aroma is a complex symphony of exotic floral notes, including hibiscus and crushed field flowers, layered with baked oranges, watermelon, and kumquat. On the palate, it delivers a smooth and silky texture with the caramelized sweetness of brulée oranges and the earthy bitterness of rhubarb, cinchona, and gentian root. The body is rich and viscous, leading to a spiced finish marked by notes of burnt citrus oil, vanilla, and green herbs. It contains less than 0.5% alcohol by volume, which is considered a negligible amount.
Food Pairing
The herbal complexity and bitter orange notes of this spirit make it an excellent partner for a variety of savoury and fresh foods. It contrasts beautifully with salty or rich dishes such as pepperoni pizza, earthy mushroom flatbreads, or juicy beef burgers. For a lighter option, the rhubarb and citrus profile complements summer salads featuring leafy greens, goat cheese, and citrus based dressings. It also harmonizes well with tangy cheeses and crunchy nuts, which echo its subtle botanical depth.
Distinctive Features
Dhōs Bittersweet is distinguished by its production process, which involves blending steam distilled botanicals and extracted oils from scratch rather than removing alcohol from a finished spirit. This small batch, unfiltered approach ensures maximum flavour and aroma while remaining sugar free and containing only five calories per serving. The product is certified clean label, pesticide free, and is sweetened naturally with monk fruit and stevia.
Serving Suggestions
A popular way to enjoy this spirit is in a 'Bittersweet Spritz', made by mixing 50ml of the spirit with soda water over crushed ice and garnishing with a fresh orange slice. For a more complex 'Sunset Spritz', it can be combined with fresh orange juice and sparkling water in a wine glass. It also serves as a versatile base for non alcoholic versions of classic cocktails such as a 'Negroni', 'Americano', or a 'Bittersweet Paloma' made with grapefruit juice and lime.
