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

With the mealVenison steak with forest fruit sauce
Ingredients
- 4 venison steaks of 150 grams

- 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 cheeseComté

- Beat the butter with the brown sugar until creamy, beat in the eggs and fold in the self-raising flour and the dates.
- Pour the batter into the dish and bake for 30 to 35 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.

A cigar with Gordon & Macphail Benrinnes 43Y 1978 Private Collection
Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Clynelish, een andere whisky uit Schotland.

Juan López Selección No. 2
Cubaanse robusto van 124 mm, droog en kruidig, tegenover de peper in de afdronk.
Why this works together
Among the Cuban houses, Juan López is dry and spicy without the heavy earth of Bolívar or Partagás. A robusto of 124 mm holds that tone evenly. Alongside a malt that already has pepper in its own finish, what matters above all is that the salt and seaweed of Clynelish set something different against it; the same pepper twice without salt would turn flat.
Also good with this whisky
- Vegas Robaina FamososRobusto van 124 mm met meer aarde, dichter bij de rooktoon in de whisky.
- Partagás Serie D No. 5Petit robusto van 110 mm, zwaarder en korter, voor wie minder lang wil doorgaan.
- E.P. Carrillo EncoreDominicaanse robusto met peper en cederhout, als tegenwicht tegen het zeewier.
