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 mealBarbecued spare ribs
Ingredients
- 2 kilos spare ribs
- 6 tablespoons barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 cloves garlic
- 4 corn cobs
Method
- Preheat the oven to 150 °C.
- Rub the spare ribs with the paprika, salt and pepper, wrap them in aluminium foil and cook them in the oven for 2 to 2.5 hours.
- 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.
With the cheeseMature cheddar
Ingredients
- 160 grams mature cheddar
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 Compass Box The Circle #2
We have worked out this cigar alongside Oban 14 Years Old Highland Malt, another whisky from Scotland.
Cohiba Siglo I
The shortest size in the Siglo series, 102 mm, light to medium; creamy and just firm enough alongside the briny character.
Why this works together
The Siglo I is short and moderate in strength, with a creamy, lightly grassy smoke. Salt brings smoke forward, and the brininess of the Oban works as that amplifier here. Because the cigar is finished in half an hour, 43 percent ABV is more than enough.
Also good with this whisky
- Cohiba Siglo IISlightly longer, same house style; the choice if you have a bit more time.
- Quai d’Orsay No. 50Short Cuban robusto of moderate strength, with a soft, woody character.
- Rafael González PerlasOne of the mildest short Cubans; lets the salt in the whisky do the work.
We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
