Whisky, smoky · Scotland · 57.5%
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.

A cigar with ELEMENTS OF ISLAY CL12
A smoky whisky, so the name says. We developed this cigar alongside Ledaig 10 Years Old (Tobermory) Peated, also a smoky whisky.
Partagás Lusitanias
Cubaanse double corona van 194 mm, aards en zwaar aan het eind, naast een turf die dat aankan.
Why this works together
A double corona of 194 mm is the longest common size and takes more than an hour to smoke. At that length the smoke shifts as you go: the start is calm, the last third clearly heavier. A peated malt of 46% ABV can follow that build, because the peat still offers a counterweight at the end. With a lighter bottle, the last part would overpower the whisky.
Also good with this whisky
- Hoyo de Monterrey Double CoronasZelfde maat van 194 mm, milder van huisstijl en zoeter in het hout.
- Ramón Allones GigantesDouble corona van 194 mm met meer body in de eerste helft.
- Montecristo Double EdmundoKorter, 155 mm, voor wie de zitting binnen het uur wil houden.
