A collection of lifestyle suggestions ranging from recipes, how to start a whisky club to best peated whisky to buy. A mix of articles that include rum and cognac, and fun whisky food and chocolate pairings.
About two years ago, I read a blog post by one of my favourite food bloggers, Drizzle & Dip. It was a recipe for Sticky Chipotle BBQ ribs that she made on a Big Green Egg. It sounded so interesting, and after doing some research, I knew that this is the braai solution we have been looking for.
Last Friday, some friends came over for our regular girls’ lunch. I wanted to spice things up and served an Indian curry lunch combined with a whisky pairing. Some research on the internet indicated that Indian food and whisky fit well together. Especially the more peaty whiskies, pair well with the spicy South Indian food.
For all my ‘Whisky of the Week’ posts, I publish a review and a rating for every whisky. These whisky ratings are based on my personal whisky rating system. There are many whisky rating systems in use.
