  3. Katkero - Gentiana (Gentiana lutea, extract of the roots is used in brewing) http://www.picatom.com/2c/Gentiana_lutea-1.html

    Beautifull flower, I am sure bitterness in the heart does not look like this :)
    According to the legend with the juice of the herb centaury (one of the members of the gentian family) centaur Chiron treated wounds, maybe heart wounds too. :)

    1. Katkero means bitters. Bitters is used to help flavor beer.

    2. Thus, not only this bitter root of gentian but variety of herbs, spices and bitter liqueurs is meant.
      Thank you for info! I don't drink beer, don't really know about it, I rather hold bitterness in my heart as they say. :)

    Good philosophy too! ;)
