Red Beeler's Tabackycrack is an aromatic cocktail bitters. But it wasn't Red who invented them, I did. Why give "Red" the credit then? To tell the truth I couldn't resist. It just so happens that Red Beeler was the most famous "revenoor" agent in the history of the United States. During his career he dynamited thousands of moonshine stills on behalf of the government. Since I grew up near the Smokies, I met Red when I was a kid because he lived right next door! So it's kind of a left-handed compliment to name a bitters in his honor.  But why "Tabackycrack?"  It's because the scent  of this bitters is almost identical to a freshly opened package of cigarettes. The irony is that the bitters contain no tobacco, just as there's no angostura bark in Angostura Bitters. Beeler's is every bit as good as Peychaud's or Angostura. When Beeler's Bitters are added to a cocktail, you can't taste them directly but they intensify the other flavors.
