After the meal

A cigar with Glendronach 18 Years Old Sherry Cask Matured

Judging by the name, this whisky has matured in a sherry or wine cask. We worked out this cigar pairing using Glendronach 12 Years Old Single Malt Sherry Cask Matured, which shares that trait.

Our choice

Montecristo No. 2

Cuban pyramid of 156 mm, cocoa and pepper, set against the raisin and spiciness from the sherry cask.

Why this works together

A pyramid tapers towards the head. As a result the smoke arrives more concentrated than with a straight size, and the pepper of the wrapper becomes sharper. Montecristo puts cocoa underneath. Against a malt that draws its whole character from the sherry cask, that pepper is the counterweight and the cocoa the connection.

Also good with this whisky

  • Romeo y Julieta BelicososPyramid of 140 mm, shorter and more floral, which gives the vanilla in the whisky more room.
  • Partagás Serie P No. 2Pyramid of 156 mm with the earthy house style of Partagás, heavier in tone.
  • Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 1Corona gorda of 143 mm without a tapered head, milder and calmer in its progression.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
