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 cheeseMature cheddar
Ingredients
- 160 grams mature cheddar
Method
- Take the cheese out of the fridge about an hour before serving; that brings out the flavour best.
- Only cut or break the cheese just before serving.
After the mealSticky toffee pudding

- 200 grams pitted dates
- 175 grams self-raising flour
- 150 grams dark soft brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 75 grams butter
- 200 millilitres whipping cream for the sauce
- 100 grams brown sugar for the sauce
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C and grease an ovenproof dish with butter.
- Chop the dates, pour boiling water over them, leave to soak for 10 minutes and mash them.
- 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.
- For the sauce, heat the cream with the brown sugar and simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring, until it thickens.

A cigar with Holyrood Pitch
We have worked out this cigar alongside Oban 14 Years Old Highland Malt, another whisky from Scotland.
Cohiba Siglo I
The shortest size in the Siglo series, 102 mm, light to medium; creamy and just firm enough alongside the briny character.
Why this works together
The Siglo I is short and moderate in strength, with a creamy, lightly grassy smoke. Salt brings smoke forward, and the brininess of the Oban works as that amplifier here. Because the cigar is finished in half an hour, 43 percent ABV is more than enough.
Also good with this whisky
- Cohiba Siglo IISlightly longer, same house style; the choice if you have a bit more time.
- Quai d’Orsay No. 50Short Cuban robusto of moderate strength, with a soft, woody character.
- Rafael González PerlasOne of the mildest short Cubans; lets the salt in the whisky do the work.
We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
