Whether building a pairing menu at home, or ordering a whiskey cocktail next time you dine out, the most important consideration is that the food and drink have to complement each other. One taste should never overpower the other.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here is a sample menu to give you some idea of what is possible:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>STARTERS:<\/b>\u00a0Charcuterie board with cured meats, cherries and cheeses<br \/>\n<b>Whiskey Pairing:<\/b>\u00a0Jameson Irish Whiskey<br \/>\n<b>Flavour notes:<\/b>\u00a0The smooth, spicy, nutty and vanilla notes of Jameson works brilliantly with the gamey flavours of the cured meats. Soft and delicate cows\u2019 cheeses also work well with the light, smoothness of Jameson, while a bite of a cherry will beautifully enhance the fragrant hints of sherry.<br \/>\n<b>Cocktail suggestion:<\/b>\u00a0Try it with Jameson Irish Whiskey on the rocks<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>MAINS:<\/b>\u00a0Hawaiian pizza or Shisa Nyama<br \/>\n<b>Whiskey Pairing:<\/b>\u00a0Jameson Caskmates IPA<br \/>\n<b>Flavour notes:<\/b> Options, options, options. Did we mention you have options? The bright floral, crisp, citrus tones of Jameson Caskmates IPA (Jameson matured in Irish Pale Ale-seasoned barrels) will make a lovely compliment to an Hawaiian pizza\u2019s sweet pineapple and salty ham. Then, whiskey and braaied meat is a tried and tested combination. Steaks with a slightly higher fat content go well with the delicate spicy tones of the Jameson Caskmates IPA edition.<br \/>\n<b>Cocktail suggestion:<\/b>\u00a0If you\u2019re having spicy Shisa Nyama try it with an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jamesonwhiskey.com\/en-za\/article\/5-surprising-jameson-whiskey-cocktails\/\"><i>IPA Shandy<\/i><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Dessert:<\/b>\u00a0Chocolate Mousse<br \/>\n<b>Whiskey Pairing:<\/b>\u00a0Jameson Select Reserve<br \/>\n<b>Flavour notes:<\/b>\u00a0Jameson Select Reserve is finished in bourbon barrels which feature an additional charring, this adds to the whiskey\u2019s richness and complexity (hyperlink to science of taste). Sip on neat measure of Jameson Select Reserve while indulging in a dark chocolate mouse, or fondant. Or even simply a block of high quality milk chocolate. The whiskey\u2019s nutty undertones and smooth vanilla sweetness will come to the fore after each bite.
