After the meal

A cigar with Spey Chairman's Choice PX Matured

Naar de naam heeft deze whisky in een sherry- of wijnvat gelegen. Deze sigaar hebben wij uitgewerkt naast Glenfarclas 15 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, die dat ook heeft.

Cigars
Our choice

Partagás Serie D No. 4

Cubaanse robusto van vol gewicht, aards en peperig; het sherryzoet vangt die peper op.

Why this works together

The Serie D No. 4 is one of the sturdier Cuban robustos, with earth, cocoa and clear pepper. That pepper needs sweetness so it does not turn dry, and here that sweetness comes from the sherry cask. The 46 percent by volume keeps the whisky from sinking beneath the smoke; at 40 it would.

Also good with this whisky

  • Partagás Serie E No. 2Dikker en langer uit hetzelfde huis, met dezelfde kruidige inslag; voor een langere zit.
  • Bolívar Royal CoronaOne of the more robust Cuban robustos, earthy and powerful enough to stand next to a sherry-rich malt.
  • Ramón Allones Specially SelectedVol en donkerfruitig; iets ronder dan de Partagás en daardoor dichter bij het vat.

We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
