The Saltmine has created a new look for the popular Australian drink Angostura Bitters. The new design stays true to the original bottle, but adds a much more typographic treatment. A lot of different fonts are used as well as a signature from the creator Dr J.G.B. Siegert.
The Angostura Bitters would be a great drink to have at a party if you want to avoid an awkward situation and look busy doing something. There is so much to read on that bottle!
