Plantation Bitters and the Rise of a Global Tonic
A historical tale traces how Plantation Bitters emerged after a physician’s health trip to St Croix and St Thomas. It recounts patient recoveries, the development of a distillery and laboratories, and rapid worldwide demand for the tonic reputed to treat dyspepsia fevers and malaria. Over five million bottles are sold yearly, with broad appeal across ages and sexes.
