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 mealSeared scallops with hazelnut butter
Ingredients
- 12 scallops
- 80 grams butter
- 40 grams hazelnuts
- 1 lemon
- 100 grams lamb's lettuce
- sea salt and pepper
Method
- Toast the hazelnuts golden brown in a dry frying pan, rub off the skins and chop them coarsely.
- Pat the scallops dry and season them with sea salt and pepper.
- Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan and fry the scallops golden brown for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan until it smells nutty brown and add the hazelnuts and a dash of lemon juice.
- Divide the lamb's lettuce between the plates, place the scallops on top and spoon the hazelnut butter over them.
With the cheeseStilton
Ingredients
- 160 grams Stilton
Method
- Take the cheese out of the fridge about an hour before serving; that brings out the flavour best.

- 1 tablespoon honey
- sea salt
Method
- Preheat the oven to 170 °C.

A cigar with Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice Balmenach 2009
Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Springbank 10 Years Old, een andere whisky uit Schotland.
Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill
Cubaanse maat van 130 mm, kort en breed, bloemig en houtig naast een malt met body.
Why this works together
The Wide Churchill is 130 mm long and strikingly broad. That proportion gives a full smoke in a short time, without turning sharp. Romeo y Julieta is floral and woody by nature, not earthy. Next to a Campbeltown malt at 46 percent ABV, that brings the wood from the cask forward instead of drowning it out.
Also good with this whisky
- Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 2Robusto van 127 mm, aards en iets zwaarder van toon.
- Vegas Robaina FamososRobusto of 124 mm with more earthiness, for those who want to bring the cigar to the fore.
- Oliva Serie V Double RobustoNicaraguan robusto with pepper instead of flowers, a clearly different direction.
