Whisky, smoky · Scotland · 46%

Why this works together

Chosen by type (whisky) and name (peat or smoke). A smoky whisky calls for dishes with a pronounced character of their own: smoked fish, something from the grill or a robust blue cheese.

After the meal

A cigar with Longrow Peated Springbank

Een rokerige whisky, zo zegt de naam. Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Connemara 12 Years Old Peated Single Malt Irish Whiskey, ook een rokerige whisky.

Cigars
Our choice

Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 2

Cubaanse robusto van gematigde sterkte; aards en licht koffieachtig, en licht genoeg om naast turf te blijven staan.

Why this works together

Smoke next to smoke adds up, which is why this only works with a whisky whose peat is restrained. That is the case here, certainly at 40 percent by volume. The Epicure No. 2 brings an earthy, slightly coffee-like smoke that goes in a different direction from the sweetish peat, and the little pepper note in the finish returns in the wrapper.

Also good with this whisky

  • Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 1Langer, zelfde huisstijl en dezelfde lichte hand; voor een zit van ruim een uur.
  • Quai d’Orsay No. 54Dikke maar zachte Cubaan, houtig en zonder scherpe peper.
  • Rafael González Petit CoronasMild en kort, voor wie de turf duidelijk voorop wil houden.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
