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 cheeseAged Gouda

- 150 millilitres whipping cream
- 20 grams butter

- 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 Finn Thomson Caol Ila 2011 Bottled 2023
We have paired this cigar with Glenfiddich 12 Years Old, another whisky from Scotland.

Montecristo No. 5
Cuban petit corona of 102 mm, short and restrained, so that the light Speyside malt does not fade.
Why this works together
A petit corona of 102 mm is the shortest size Montecristo makes. Little tobacco burns at a time, so the smoke stays light and the cigar is finished within half an hour. That suits a malt of 40 per cent ABV: a longer or thicker cigar would simply push aside the floral character.
Also good with this whisky
- H. Upmann Coronas JuniorPetit corona of 110 mm with a softer, woodier tone than the Montecristo.
- Romeo y Julieta Petit CoronasPetit corona of 129 mm, slightly longer, floral and light in weight.
- Macanudo Café Hyde ParkDominican robusto under a Connecticut wrapper: wood and cream, without sharpness.
We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
