Each weekend as I peer into my cocktail cabinet, I notice the oddity of the Angostura Bitters bottle label: itβs too big for the freakin bottle!!! Why?!?
Well I found out why. Join me:π§΅
Itβs a beautiful mistake. When founder Dr. Johann Siegert died in 1870, his sons decided to do a rebrand.
One brother designed a new bottle, the other a new label.
However, apparently they never consulted each other.

Landed AKL. Picked up new car. Little more scuffed than I expected but overall exactly what I wanted. Driving home over the next 2 days. Join me on my 600km journey with a car that only does 100km between charges. Should be an adventure!
Pick up the car with max 79kms left. Already done ~35kms prior to pickup, so hopeful I do at least 80-100kms between charges. First charger only 10km away.
