Why this works together
Chosen by type (whisky). Whisky goes with dishes that have their own character, with an aged cheese and, after the meal, with something with chocolate, caramel or nuts.
What is needed
For 4 people
With the mealDuck breast with cherry sauce
Ingredients
- 2 duck breasts
- 300 grams cherries
- 100 millilitres red wine
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 20 grams butter
- 800 grams potatoes
Method
- Peel the potatoes and boil them in salted water for about 20 minutes until tender.
- Score the skin of the duck breasts in a diamond pattern, season with salt and pepper and stone the cherries.
- Place the duck breasts skin side down in a cold pan and cook them for 8 to 10 minutes until the skin is crisp.
- Turn them over, cook them for 3 to 4 minutes for pink, and leave them to rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Pour most of the fat out of the pan and cook the cherries with the red wine and the honey for 5 minutes to make a sauce.
- Whisk the butter into the sauce, slice the duck breast and serve with the sauce and the potatoes.
With the cheeseAged Gouda
Ingredients
- 160 grams aged Gouda
Method
- Take the cheese out of the fridge about an hour before serving; that brings out the flavour best.
- Only cut or break the cheese just before serving.
After the mealChocolate truffles
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 150 millilitres whipping cream
- 20 grams butter
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
Method
- Finely chop the chocolate and put it in a bowl.
- Bring the cream just to the boil and pour it over the chocolate.
- Leave for 1 minute, stir to a smooth ganache and stir in the butter.
- Leave the ganache to set, covered, in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Scoop small portions with a teaspoon, quickly roll them into balls and coat them in the cocoa powder.
- Keep cool and take them out of the fridge a quarter of an hour before serving.

A cigar with Ballindalloch 2016 8 Years Old
Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Springbank 10 Years Old, een andere whisky uit Schotland.
Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill
Cubaanse maat van 130 mm, kort en breed, bloemig en houtig naast een malt met body.
Why this works together
The Wide Churchill is 130 mm long and strikingly broad. That proportion gives a full smoke in a short time, without turning sharp. Romeo y Julieta is floral and woody by nature, not earthy. Next to a Campbeltown malt at 46 percent ABV, that brings the wood from the cask forward instead of drowning it out.
Also good with this whisky
- Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 2Robusto van 127 mm, aards en iets zwaarder van toon.
- Vegas Robaina FamososRobusto of 124 mm with more earthiness, for those who want to bring the cigar to the fore.
- Oliva Serie V Double RobustoNicaraguan robusto with pepper instead of flowers, a clearly different direction.
