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 mealVenison steak with forest fruit sauce
Ingredients
- 4 venison steaks of 150 grams
- 200 grams forest fruits
- 100 millilitres red wine
- 100 millilitres game stock
- 30 grams butter
- 1 kilo potatoes
- 400 grams Brussels sprouts
Method
- Take the steaks out of the fridge half an hour before cooking and season them with salt and pepper.
- Peel the potatoes and boil them in salted water for about 20 minutes until tender.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts and boil them for 6 to 8 minutes until just tender.
- Fry the steaks in hot butter for 2 to 3 minutes per side and leave them to rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Deglaze the pan with the red wine and game stock, add the forest fruits and reduce to a glossy sauce.
- Slice the meat on the diagonal and serve with the sauce, the potatoes and the Brussels sprouts.
With the cheeseComté
Ingredients
- 160 grams Comté
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 mealCrème brûlée
Ingredients
- 500 millilitres whipping cream
- 6 egg yolks
- 100 grams sugar
- 1 vanilla pod
- 4 tablespoons cane sugar for the crust
Method
- Preheat the oven to 150 °C.
- Split the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds and heat the cream with the pod and seeds until just below boiling.
- Whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until pale and pour in the warm cream, stirring.
- Strain the mixture, divide it between four ovenproof ramekins and place them in an ovenproof dish with hot water.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the cream has just set but still wobbles slightly, leave to cool and chill for at least 4 hours.
- Just before serving, sprinkle with cane sugar and caramelise with a blowtorch or under a hot grill.
To pour 4 cl per person

A cigar with Compass Box Ultramarine
We have worked out this cigar alongside Glen Scotia 12 Years Old, another whisky from Scotland.
Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo de San Juan
Cuban size of 150 mm, mild and sweet in the wood, alongside the vanilla and cinnamon of Glen Scotia.
Why this works together
Le Hoyo de San Juan is 150 mm long and wide in ring gauge. Hoyo de Monterrey is the mildest of the great Cuban houses: sweet wood and cedar smoke instead of pepper. That sweet wood note ties in with the vanilla and cinnamon in the whisky, while the salt and citrus keep the whole from turning out too sweet.
Also good with this whisky
- H. Upmann Magnum 50Same order of size, 160 mm, but drier and nuttier in tone.
- Montecristo Double Edmundo155 mm with cocoa and pepper, as a counterweight to the sweetness.
- Davidoff Nicaragua ToroA 152 mm toro with distinct pepper, a different direction from the Cubans.
We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
