Whisky, smoky · Scotland · 58%

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.

After the meal

A cigar with Finlaggan Cask Strength Islay Malt Whisky

Een rokerige whisky, zo zegt de naam. Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Caol Ila Islay Single Malt 12 Years Old, ook een rokerige whisky.

Cigars
Our choice

Ramón Allones Specially Selected

Volle Cubaanse robusto met aarde en donker fruit; houdt stand tegen turf.

Why this works together

Turfrook en tabaksrook tellen op, dus dit gaat alleen goed als de sigaar zelf gewicht heeft. De Specially Selected heeft dat: hij is vol, aards en kruidig en laat zich niet overstemmen. De zoete mout en toffee in de whisky vangen de droogte van de tabak op, waar een kurkdroge whisky het geheel hard zou maken.

Also good with this whisky

  • Bolívar Royal CoronaEven zwaar, wat peperiger; de keuze als u de turf tegenwicht wilt geven in plaats van gezelschap.
  • Partagás Serie D No. 4Aards en kruidig, en de bekendste volle Cubaanse robusto.
  • Cohiba RobustosMidden tot vol, met de romige toon van het huis; iets zachter dan de andere drie.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
