angostura

as noted by the guardian way back in november, there is an acute shortage of angostura bitters in the world. this potential lack of angostura could mean the death (or at least significant change) of many cocktails, including the old fashioned, manhattan, and many more. the plant is back online, but it'll take a while to get bitters back in stock for a while.
the shortage is bearing out here as well - spec's (the local booze superstore) has been out for months. i found some at out of the way heb a few days ago (and bought 4 bottles), and apparently cocktail kingdom still has some around.
