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.

Ingredients

  • 2 duck breasts
  • 300 grams cherries
  • 100 millilitres red wine
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 20 grams butter

  2. Score the skin of the duck breasts in a diamond pattern, season with salt and pepper and stone the cherries.
  3. Place the duck breasts skin side down in a cold pan and cook them for 8 to 10 minutes until the skin is crisp.
  4. Turn them over, cook them for 3 to 4 minutes for pink, and leave them to rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
  5. Pour most of the fat out of the pan and cook the cherries with the red wine and the honey for 5 minutes to make a sauce.
  6. Whisk the butter into the sauce, slice the duck breast and serve with the sauce and the potatoes.
ComtéWith the cheeseComté

After the meal

A cigar with Lambay Whiskey Legends Collection Giftpack 3x5cl.

We have worked out this cigar alongside Teeling 15 Years Old Single Grain, another whisky from Ireland.

Cigars
Our choice

Davidoff Aniversario No. 3

Dominican toro of 152 mm, wood and cream without sharp pepper, alongside the wine cask finish.

Why this works together

A toro of 152 mm is long and moderately thick; the smoke therefore stays even for a long time and only becomes fuller at the end. Davidoff works with a light wrapper that gives wood and cream instead of pepper. Grain whiskey is naturally softer and sweeter than malt, and the white wine casks lay a fresh, dry layer over it. A peppery cigar would push that difference away; this one leaves it intact.

Also good with this whisky

  • Davidoff Millennium Blend RobustoRobusto of 127 mm from the same house, shorter and with more body.
  • AVO Syncro Nicaragua RobustoRobusto with Nicaraguan tobacco in the filler, more peppery and sturdier.
  • Macanudo Café Hyde ParkMild robusto with wood and cream, for those who want to keep the whiskey even more to the fore.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
