Whisky, smoky · Scotland · 46%
Why this works together
Chosen by type (whisky) and name (peat or smoke). A smoky whisky calls for dishes with a pronounced character of their own: smoked fish, something from the grill or a robust blue cheese.
What is needed

Ingredients
- 2 kilos spare ribs
- 6 tablespoons barbecue sauce

- Mix the barbecue sauce with the honey and the crushed garlic.
- Boil the corn cobs for 10 minutes in salted water.
- Grill the spare ribs and the corn for 10 minutes on the hot barbecue, brushing the ribs regularly with the sauce until they shine.

A cigar with Benromach Contrasts UnPeated
A smoky whisky, as the name says. We have worked out this cigar alongside Laphroaig 10 Years Old Sherry Oak Finish, also a smoky whisky.

Padrón 1964 Anniversary Exclusivo
Pressed Nicaraguan puro of full weight; pepper and cocoa against the peat.
Why this works together
A Nicaraguan puro of this weight brings pepper, earth and cocoa and so holds its own against the peat. The sherry finish makes the difference: without that sweet layer, two dry, smoky partners would make each other harsh. At 48 percent ABV the whisky does lead, so take the glass slowly.
Also good with this whisky
- Padrón 1926 Serie No. 35From the same house and a notch fuller still; only if you dilute the whisky generously with water.
- My Father Le Bijou 1922Full-bodied Nicaraguan cigar with a dark wrapper and lots of pepper.
- Joya de Nicaragua Antaño 1970Classic heavy Nicaraguan, earthy and spicy; the driest of the four.
