Revolver

Description

San Francisco bartender Jon Santer created the Revolver as a caffeinated twist on the Manhattan cocktail in the early 2000s. He first developed the cocktail at Bruno's before taking it to Bourbon & Branch. Santer used orange bitters instead of sweet vermouth to round out the drink's edges, lending subtle brightness to that dark and mysterious cocktail, while the cocktail's depth is enhanced by a little coffee liqueur, and a hint of sweetness is imparted to the drink with a dash.
