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
For 4 people
With the mealCôte de boeuf with coarse sea salt
Ingredients
- 1.2 kilos côte de boeuf
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 sprigs of rosemary
- 1 kilo potatoes
- coarse sea salt and pepper
Method
- Take the meat out of the fridge an hour before cooking and brush it with olive oil.
- Sear the côte de boeuf in a smoking-hot pan or on the grill for 3 minutes per side.
- Cook it with the rosemary in an oven at 120 °C for about 40 minutes to a core temperature of 52 °C.
- Meanwhile, fry the potato wedges in oil for 25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Leave the meat to rest for 10 minutes, carve it off the bone into slices and sprinkle with coarse sea salt and pepper.
With the cheeseMature cheddar
Ingredients
- 160 grams mature cheddar
Method

- 200 millilitres whipping cream for the sauce
- 100 grams brown sugar for the sauce
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C and grease an ovenproof dish with butter.
- Chop the dates, pour boiling water over them, leave to soak for 10 minutes and mash them.
- Beat the butter with the brown sugar until creamy, beat in the eggs and fold in the self-raising flour and the dates.
- Pour the batter into the dish and bake for 30 to 35 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.
- For the sauce, heat the cream with the brown sugar and simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring, until it thickens.

A cigar with Writers Tears Japanese Cask Finish
We have paired this cigar with Green Spot Irish Whiskey, another whisky from Ireland.
Ashton Classic Corona
Dominican tobacco under an American shade wrapper; the lightest line of the house and equally restrained throughout.
Why this works together
A Connecticut-type shade wrapper gives little pepper and mainly hay, nut and a lightly sweet wood note. That nuttiness runs in step with the nut in the whiskey, so the two slot into each other rather than clash. At 40 per cent ABV the alcohol stays in the background, so the cigar keeps its own flavour.
Also good with this whisky
- Davidoff Grand Cru No. 3The same light class, with an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper and a slightly drier wood note.
- Macanudo Café Hyde ParkMild and nutty, and widely available; a calm choice alongside a soft whiskey.
- Arturo Fuente Chateau FuenteDominican under a Connecticut shade wrapper, slightly fuller but still without sharp pepper.
We do not sell cigars; we supply the whisky.
