Located near San Francisco’s prestigious Union Square, Pacific Cocktail Haven (P.C.H.) is a lively bar that has quickly grown into one of America’s most acclaimed cocktail destinations.
Featuring cocktails that are inspired by Asian-Pacific ingredients, P.C.H. is known for its creative, balanced cocktails, and the “Back in Black” is no exception where black sesame brings this cocktail to life.
The cocktail created by Kevin Diedrich, Owner of P.C.H., is a spin on a Manhattan and its contemporary classic, the Black Manhattan. Cynar and salted black sesame are the stars of the cocktail – and Cynar’s earthiness pairs incredibly well with the sesame from one of Kevin’s favorite local San Francisco shops, The Japanese Pantry. Instead of using only bourbon, he splits the base with HINE cognac to give it a little more character and depth. The Liquor 43 adds that hint of orange and vanilla, which also pairs well with the sesame.
Preparation
- Stir and strain into a martini glass.
- Garnish with an orange twist.
