After the meal

A cigar with Murray McDavid Benchmark Mannochmore 10 Years Old 2016

We have paired this cigar with Kilkerran 12 Year Old, another whisky from Scotland.

Cigars
Our choice

Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story

Short Dominican perfecto under a Cameroon wrapper; sweetish spice against the dry pepper of the malt.

Why this works together

The Short Story has a Cameroon wrapper, which gives a sweetish spiciness rather than sharp pepper. The dry pepper is therefore in the glass and not in the cigar, so the two complement each other instead of doubling the same note. The perfecto format tapers at both ends: the cigar smokes more concentrated at first and then opens up.

Also good with this whisky

  • Arturo Fuente Hemingway SignatureThe same blend in a longer perfecto, for those sitting for more than half an hour.
  • Oliva Serie GNicaraguan cigar, also with a Cameroon wrapper, medium in strength and widely available.
  • Davidoff Nicaragua Short CoronaShort size with Nicaraguan tobacco; more peppery than the Fuentes and therefore the strongest of this line-up.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
