The story behind it

The maker

Co-created by cocktail authority Gary Regan, this brand was born from a tireless quest to resurrect the lost ingredient of classic pre-Prohibition cocktail recipes. Regans' No. 6 emerged as the perfect formulation, forever changing the landscape of the modern cocktail renaissance.

How it is made

Developed by legendary spirits writer Gary 'Gaz' Regan in the 1990s to replicate an authentic, historical orange bitters recipe. Produced under the stewardship of the Sazerac Company at their Buffalo Trace Distillery, it continues to set the gold standard for mixologists worldwide.
