A very extraordinary rum from the Philippines. A Zino Classic Petit Corona with its creamy, sweet texture intensifies the sweetness after the first sip.
Traditional: Pierre Ferrand Pineau des Charentes
This traditional aperitif from France should really be enjoyed slightly cooled. The aromas of a Bolivar Royal Corona accommodates the drink smoothly.
Complex: Bentley B13
Complexity says it all with this rum. Perfect for a Robusto from the Air Bender series by La Flor Dominicana, the blend of which is mainly distinguished by its spicy aromas.
Perfect Start: Jim Beam Signature Craft
Jim Beam can also be different. The aromas of roasted nuts, oak, prunes and sponge cake give you a taste for more. The light fruitiness with a touch of burnt almonds is the perfect accompaniment to a Davidoff Miniature Gold Edition.
Relaunched: James E. Pepper 1776 Rye
America’s oldest whiskey brand has been relaunched and stands out with a great representative of the rye category. Overall, this suggests more an aperitif for the early evening, but in combination with an Oliva G Perfecto, there is no objection to brunch, either.
Complexity and Aroma: Gran Duque d’Alba Oro
Incredibly dense in aromas – oak, vanilla pod, dark chocolate, raisins – the complexity and aroma are apparent in the very first mouthful. The tangy-sweet texture of an Aurora 100 Anos Edición Especial brings out the fruity sweetness of the brandy and ensures a sated feeling in the mouth.
A Wealth of Aromas: Asbach Spezialbrand 15 Years
The 15-year-old can sit easily stand a comparison with its European relatives. An A. Flores Gran Reserva Half Corona with its earthy, aromatic and slightly leathery texture initially brings out a more marked sweetness.
Complex Plum Brandy: Serbica Ramonda
This complex plum brandy from Serbia aged in a barrel is first class. A short robusto by Perla del Mar goes well with it. During the ensuing tête-à-tête, the aromas of the distillate hold their ground nicely.
The Crowning Glory: Auchentoshan Three Wood
Distinctive sherry notes, strongly cooked apricot jam, subtle wood aromas, candied oranges; ethereal. The ideal partner is a Balmoral Royal Selection Anejo 18. Earthy, leathery, subtle coffee aromas and, at the same time, notes of spice cake; perfect.
Spicy sweet: Rum Company 15
Wonderful notes of walnut with fruity notes and subtle salty tones first rise from the glass. Combined with a Juan Lopez Seleccion No. 2, astonishing notes of orange peel and bergamot can be detected. With an Ashton VSG Belicoso one immediately thinks of cream caramel.
For the Afternoon: Valedor Coffee Spirit
Spirit of coffee with a rum base – the rum serves magnificently to enhance the classic coffee aromas. With its cookie-like notes of Speculoos biscuits, caramel and some nutmeg, the spirit interplays ideally with a Cedros Deluxe by My Father.
Sharp Things: Wolfertz Cigar Cutters
Professional chefs, hobby cooks and knife freaks know that knives not only need to be sharp, but they must also be of a high quality. As cigar friends, we also assert this claim for cigar cutters.
