After the meal

A cigar with Glenfarclas 9 Years Old Oloroso Sherry Casks

Naar de naam heeft deze whisky in een sherry- of wijnvat gelegen. Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Millstone 12 Years Old Sherry Cask Zuidam Distillers, die dat ook heeft.

Cigars
Our choice

Rocky Patel Vintage 1990

Hondurese robusto onder een donkere Connecticut broadleaf; koffie en zoet hout naast het sherryvat.

Why this works together

A dark broadleaf wrapper has fermented for longer and therefore gives coffee, earth and a sweet woody note sooner than pepper. That woody note lies close to what the sherry cask gives the whisky, so the two meet on the same note. The risk here is not a clash but sameness; the 46 percent ABV keeps enough tension to prevent that.

Also good with this whisky

  • Ashton Aged Maduro No. 20Dominicaans met dezelfde broadleaf-wikkel, iets milder en gladder van rook.
  • Oliva Serie O MaduroNicaraguaanse maduro, wat peperiger, waardoor het geheel minder eenvormig wordt.
  • Rocky Patel Vintage 1992Uit dezelfde lijn maar met een Ecuadoraanse Sumatra-wikkel: lichter van kleur en droger van toon.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
