Angostura Limited, also known as the House of Angostura, is one of the world’s most renowned producers of aromatic bitters and premium rum. The brand dates back to 1824, when German doctor Johann Gottlieb Benjamin Siegert created his bitters as a digestive elixir for the military in the town of Angostura (now Ciudad Bolívar, Venezuela).

Production was later moved to Trinidad, where it continues today according to a closely guarded secret recipe known only to a select few. Angostura bitters have become a global standard in mixology, instantly recognizable by their distinctive packaging featuring a yellow cap and an intentionally oversized label.

Over the years, the company has expanded its portfolio to include a wide range of premium rums, celebrated for their long aging process and rich flavor. The brand’s offerings also include liqueurs, carbonated beverages, and innovative rum-based products, and it has become an important export ambassador for Trinidad and Tobago.

Angostura blends tradition with innovation, building on two centuries of heritage while embracing modern trends in cocktail culture. Its products have won awards at international competitions, and its bitters are an essential staple in bars around the world.
