After reviewing other posts I decided to try a little harder with my background. How did I do?

Full disclosure I really dislike coffee in cocktails in general. It always makes me want to just drink normal coffee. The revolver was no exception. I liked the earthy bitterness and I caught all the flavors elements of this drink. Personally the flamed orange was my favorite part. That reminded me of a chocolate orange. Overall not my favorite drink but I’m glad I tried it.

Malort continues to surprise me each day. Today the Malort enhanced the earthy, grassy qualities of the coffee, but retained its alpine notes as well. In addition it gave me that “wonderful” gasoline note that sometimes is used to describe it. I actually think I may have enjoyed the Revolver more if it had the Malort I. It. Is this Stockholm syndrome? Who knows. 8/10 for the Malort chaser.
