After the meal

A cigar with Murray McDavid Cask Craft Auchroisk Bourbon Quarter Cask

Een Amerikaanse whiskey. Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Woodford Reserve, ook uit Amerika.

Cigars
Our choice

Ashton VSG Robusto

Dominicaanse robusto van 137 mm met een donkere wikkel: zoet hout en koffie naast het vatwerk van bourbon.

Why this works together

De VSG is een robusto van 137 mm onder een donkere Ecuadoraanse wikkel. Die wikkel is langer gefermenteerd en geeft daardoor eerder zoet hout en koffie dan peper. Bourbon rijpt op nieuwe eiken vaten en heeft daar zijn vanille en karamel van. Die twee zoete houttonen komen op dezelfde plek uit; de kruidigheid in de whiskey voorkomt dat het geheel te vlak wordt.

Also good with this whisky

  • Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne RobustoLichtere wikkel, droger van toon, waardoor het graan in de whiskey opvalt.
  • Oliva Serie O RobustoNicaraguaanse robusto van 127 mm, peperiger en steviger.
  • Rocky Patel Sungrown RobustoRobusto met een zongerijpte wikkel, tussen de andere drie in van gewicht.
