Swedish Bitters Tincture is a quickly absorbed (when compared to tablets or capsules) multipurpose liquid with a variety of versatile uses.
When Hilde Hemmes first came across an old Swedish Bitters recipe in a German book, she was so impressed with its therapeutic benefits that she obtained the herbal mixture. In 1984 Hilde and her husband started manufacturing and successfully distributing Swedish Bitters Tincture into the Australian marketplace. Now more than three decades later, Swedish Bitters is one of Australia's leading herbal bitter tonics.
