After the meal

A cigar with Glenfiddich 12Y Rum Cask Finish

Judging by its name, this whisky has spent time in a sherry or wine cask. We worked out this cigar pairing alongside Aberlour 12 Years Old Non Chill-Filtered, which has done the same.

Our choice

Montecristo Edmundo

Cuban robusto extra of 135 mm with cocoa and light pepper, running parallel to the chocolate in the finish.

Why this works together

At 135 mm the Edmundo is shorter than a corona but clearly thicker, so the smoke comes in full without it taking long. Montecristo is known for cocoa and a light pepper. That cocoa lies close to the chocolate tone in the finish, while the pepper counterbalances the sherry sweetness. The 48 percent by volume keeps the whisky upright next to the weight of the cigar.

Also good with this whisky

  • H. Upmann Magnum 46Corona gorda of 143 mm, slimmer and drier, so the sherry sweetness stands out more.
  • Ashton Aged Maduro No. 20Dark broadleaf wrapper with coffee and sweet wood, close to the tone of the sherry cask.
  • Rocky Patel Vintage 1992Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, lighter in colour and drier, as a counterweight to the sweetness.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
