Welcome once again to shayorepublic.com. Its another weekend and here we have another article for our readers. This is going to be the first of the bitters series. Now, bitters are also a kinda alcoholic drink if you think about it. Back then they werent though we had drinks like yoyo bitters and the likes which weren't for social consumption mostly medicinal but now thank God for evolution we have the many bitters which are used for various purposes. Now I personally haven't always been a fan of bitters but in recent years Ive become somewhat very fond of it. Now I am sure we all know the lore about how it helps the male "performance" and all that jazz. Personally I just think it's psychological and there's no magic involved in my own humble opinion. With that out of the way, today's article is about Orijin Bitters. I am sure a vast majority of our male readers have had one this week...*wink wink* to keep body and soul together as they say. It's a product of the Diaego/Guinness Nigeria company and it is very well...as the name implies..bitter. and the bitter after taste that the alcohol tends to escort could almost be described as orgasmic. but don't take my word for it go get yourself one right away. it is totally worth it. it an indigenous alcoholic beverage in a dark green 20cl & 75cl sizes marketed with an ABV of closer to 30%. since it is bitter as the name describes certain African herbs and fruits can be found in it which gives it its flavor like plant extract (neutral spirits, sugar, citric acids, trisodium citrate, caramel extracts, naartire, chamomile, thyme, cinnamon and orange). this said flavor tastes somehow medicinal depending on who you ask of course. Since in the above list of ingredients of production chamomile is listed and Im sure you must have seen chamomile tea being sold somewhere for those people are extremely vertical (fat) chamomile is said to actually help with the usual stomach upset and even anxiety. Also for those adventurous alcoholics out there, it could also be mixed into Chapman to give it a traditional feel..Thank me later. I mean how awesome could one drink be? Considering this is the first article in the series there is definitely more to come. Which bitters drink would you suggest gets posted next week? Anyone?.....
