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.

A cigar with Seven Seals The Age of Virgo
No dedicated pairing has been worked out for this bottle yet. We chose this cigar to go with Kavalan Single Malt.
Romeo y Julieta Petit Coronas
Cubaanse petit corona van 129 mm, bloemig en licht van gewicht, naast een fles van 40 volumeprocent.
Why this works together
A petit corona of 129 mm is slim and short. Romeo y Julieta is floral and woody by nature, without the heavy earth of Bolívar or Partagás. Whisky from a warm climate matures quickly and takes on a lot of cask, but at 40% ABV the alcohol weight stays low. A thick or long cigar would overpower it; this size stays alongside.
Also good with this whisky
- H. Upmann Coronas JuniorPetit corona van 110 mm, korter en droger van toon.
- Macanudo Café Hyde ParkDominicaanse robusto met hout en room, als de rook iets voller mag zijn.
- Davidoff Millennium Blend RobustoRobusto of 127 mm with more pepper, for those who want to bring the cigar to the fore.
