After the meal

A cigar with Blackadder Sherry Snake SS04

Naar de naam heeft deze whisky in een sherry- of wijnvat gelegen. Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Glendronach 12 Years Old Single Malt Sherry Cask Matured, die dat ook heeft.

Cigars
Our choice

Montecristo No. 2

Cubaanse piramide van 156 mm, cacao en peper, tegenover de rozijn en kruidigheid uit het sherryvat.

Why this works together

A pyramid tapers towards the head. As a result the smoke arrives more concentrated than with a straight size, and the pepper of the wrapper becomes sharper. Montecristo puts cocoa underneath. Against a malt that draws its whole character from the sherry cask, that pepper is the counterweight and the cocoa the connection.

Also good with this whisky

  • Romeo y Julieta BelicososPiramide van 140 mm, korter en bloemiger, waardoor de vanille in de whisky meer ruimte krijgt.
  • Partagás Serie P No. 2Piramide van 156 mm met de aardse huisstijl van Partagás, zwaarder van toon.
  • Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 1Corona gorda van 143 mm zonder toelopende kop, milder en rustiger van verloop.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
