WHISKY FOR DINNER

WINE AND FOOD PAIRINGS ARE THE ENVY OF WHISKY LOVERS.

But dividing whisky into five flavour camps makes it easy to find complementary and contrasting foods.

Glazed meats and desserts in the crème caramel family pair well with sweet whiskies such as Forty Creek Double Barrel or Gretzky Ice Cask.

Poultry and sausages go well with the fruit chutney flavours of Canadian Club Sherry Cask and Gibson's Bold.

Spicy Asian dishes and most chillies love spicy whiskies such as Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye or Canadian Rockies 21.

Coffee and chocolate mousse match well with the dark flavours of Alberta Premium Dark Horse and Lot Number 40. Thinking of eggnog? Try cream whiskies.
