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 mealSeared scallops with hazelnut butter
Ingredients
- 12 scallops
- 80 grams butter
- 40 grams hazelnuts
- 1 lemon
- 100 grams lamb's lettuce
- sea salt and pepper
Method
- Toast the hazelnuts golden brown in a dry frying pan, rub off the skins and chop them coarsely.
- Pat the scallops dry and season them with sea salt and pepper.
- Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan and fry the scallops golden brown for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan until it smells nutty brown and add the hazelnuts and a dash of lemon juice.
- Divide the lamb's lettuce between the plates, place the scallops on top and spoon the hazelnut butter over them.
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 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 Finlaggan Old Reserve
We have worked out this cigar alongside Craigellachie 13 Years Old Single Speyside Malt Whisky, another whisky from Scotland.
H. Upmann Connossieur No. 1
Cuban corona gorda of 143 mm, dry and woody, alongside the smoky undertone of the whisky.
Why this works together
The Connossieur No. 1 is a corona gorda of 143 mm: long enough to keep going at a relaxed pace, wide enough to keep its body. H. Upmann is by nature dry and woody rather than heavy. Alongside a malt that already has tobacco and smoke in its flavour, that dryness keeps the whole in balance; a sweeter cigar would drown out the fruit in the whisky.
Also good with this whisky
- Montecristo No. 3Corona of 142 mm, slimmer and with more cocoa, which makes the mandarin in the whisky stand out.
- Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 1Corona gorda of 143 mm with a sweeter wood note, closer to the cinnamon in the flavour.
- Davidoff Millennium Blend RobustoRobusto of 127 mm, shorter and sturdier, for those who prefer a shorter smoke.
We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
