Opius Rubedo – Non-Alcoholic Bitter Elixir (0.0%)

Discover the alchemy of taste with Opius Rubedo, a premium non-alcoholic elixir that combines craftsmanship and innovation. This Belgian masterpiece, developed by master distiller Prof. Dr. Benedikt Sas of Ghent University, offers a complex drinking experience that surprises even the most demanding sommelier.

Flavor Profile: Powerful, Bitter & Elegant

Opius Rubedo is a tribute to classic bitters. Rather than copying an existing drink, Rubedo creates its own timeless category:
  • Nose: An intense and fruity aroma of juicy orange and floral undertones.
  • Palate: A silky-smooth texture with the refined bitterness of gentian, rhubarb, and chinotto.
  • Finish: A powerful, refreshing bitter finish that lingers elegantly.

Serving Suggestions

Rubedo is extremely versatile and perfect for the conscious connoisseur:
  • Rubedo Tonic: Fill a glass with ice, add 50ml of Opius Rubedo, and top with 100ml of premium Indian Tonic. Garnish with a slice of orange.
  • Rubedo Spritz: Mix 50ml of Rubedo with 80ml of non-alcoholic sparkling wine for a festive aperitif.
  • Nogroni: Mix equal parts of Rubedo with a non-alcoholic red vermouth (such as Martini Vibrante) for a bitter classic without the hangover.

Specifications

  • Content: Available in 500ml and 200ml.
  • Alcohol by volume: 0.0% vol.
  • Features: 100% natural, vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free.
  • Shelf life: Can be kept for up to 6 months after opening.

Info

Each bottle of Opius is handmade in Ghent in small batches of approximately 200 bottles. The four-week production process combines age-old alchemical techniques with modern science, including hydrodistillation, maceration, and fermentation. This results in a unique mouthfeel and a depth rarely achieved in non-alcoholic beverages.
