ABV, or Alcohol By Volume, is a gorgeous speakeasy bar that lurks behind the walls of Lazy Bastard, enticing one with its secretive Prohibition era-inspired theme, with the staff dressed a la Jay Gatsby and Fanny Brice ready to wait. With its first class service and extravagant cocktails, it is rated as one of the best bars in Asia by Drinks International.
Lester Ligon is the winner of the 2016 Whisky Live Manila Cocktail Competition. Renowned for his extravagant creations, including the original Eastern-style, bespoke cocktails he serves at ABV, he was recognised as a finalist in the 2016 Diageo World Class South East Asian Challenge.
