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.
What is needed

Ingredients

- Fry the steaks in hot butter for 2 to 3 minutes per side and leave them to rest, covered, for 5 minutes.

- Slice the meat on the diagonal and serve with the sauce, the potatoes and the Brussels sprouts.

A cigar with The Norfolk Farmers
Voor deze fles is nog geen eigen combinatie uitgewerkt. Deze sigaar hebben wij gekozen bij Yellow Spot 12 Years Old Irish Whiskey.
Arturo Fuente Don Carlos No. 4
Dominican corona of 143 mm under a Cameroon wrapper: nutty and spicy alongside apple and custard.
Why this works together
The Don Carlos No. 4 is a corona of 143 mm under a Cameroon wrapper. That wrapper is spicy without sharp pepper and gives nut rather than earth. That nuttiness runs in step with the nuts in the whiskey, while the spice lifts out its custard sweetness. At 46 per cent ABV the bottle has enough weight to carry that spice.
Also good with this whisky
- Davidoff Millennium Blend RobustoRobusto of 127 mm, shorter and firmer, with more pepper against the sweetness.
- Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 1Cuban corona gorda of 143 mm with sweeter wood, closer to the toffee.
- Montecristo Petit EdmundoPetit robusto of 110 mm with cocoa, for a shorter moment.
