GOOD TASTE LOVES COMPANY
THE SINGLETON NEAT
INGREDIENTS
50 ml The Singleton of Dufftown 12 Year Old
PREPARATION
Pour the single malt whisky into a tumbler and enjoy neat or with ice.
One drink contains 15.8 g alcohol.
PERFECT COMBINATION
AMARETTINI
Roasted nuts and brown sugar - these are the flavours of The Singleton, but also the ingredients for Amarettini. The tiny macaroons from Italy caress the flavour of the Scottish original with their delicate almond aroma. What is traditionally served with coffee also goes perfectly with The Singleton. An absolute highlight for every connoisseur!
PERFECTLY SERVED
APPLE PIE
A classic apple strudel harmoniously complements and enhances the apple flavor of The Singleton: peel and slice 5 to 6 apples. Mix with 1 tbsp lemon juice, 80 g sugar, 100 g grated almonds, 30 g raisins and a little cinnamon. Prepare a ready-made strudel dough and spread the apple mixture on top. Fold in the sides, roll up the dough, brush with a little butter and bake at 200 °C for 30 minutes.
THE SINGLETON ORCHARD

50ml The Singleton of Dufftown 12 Year Old
50ml apple and pear juice
50ml soda water

PERFECTLY COMBINED
VANILLA ROLLS
Vanilla ideally complements the subtle notes of apple and pear in The Singleton Orchard. This is why vanilla rolls go perfectly with this sparkling drink. These can simply be served with the cocktail. The finger food quickly becomes a dessert: simply serve with some fruit and a little powdered sugar - and you have a delicious end to your meal.
PERFECTLY SERVED
SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH TRUFFLE MAYO
A classic with a difference:
Sweet potato fries are almost as popular as their yellow potato counterpart as a sweet and salty snack. Complemented with a little truffle mayonnaise, they quickly become a sophisticated dish that balances the sweetness of the apple and pear in The Singleton Orchard in a unique way.
THE SINGLETON TROPICAL

50 ml The Singleton of Dufftown 12 Year Old
50 ml guava juice
50 ml grapefruit soda

PERFECTLY COMBINED
ROASTED POPCORN WITH SEA SALT
Many people know popcorn primarily as a sweet snack from the movies - but as an accompaniment to The Singleton Tropical at home, it can be salty. This really brings out the exotic citrus flavors and underlines the character of the fresh cocktail. With light roasted aromas, popcorn complements the enjoyment and creates an extraordinary atmosphere.
PERFECTLY SERVED
DUCK BREAST WITH GRAPEFRUIT CHUTNEY
Homemade duck breast is an ideal accompaniment to The Singleton Tropical - the savory dish highlights its citrus notes. Score the skin of the duck breast into a diamond shape and season well with salt and pepper. Place the duck breast skin-side down in an ovenproof pan and fry on both sides until golden brown. Then place the pan in the hot oven for 10-12 minutes. Cut into slices and serve with grapefruit chutney and strips of fruit or vegetables.

As with whisky, every connoisseur has a favorite when it comes to chocolate. But when it comes to The Singleton Snug, everyone agrees that the bitter-bitter flavors of a good dark or even dark chocolate ideally complement its intense coffee notes and play off the subtle nuances perfectly.
PERFECTLY SERVED
PASTRAMI SANDWICH WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR
Let the tangy flavours of The Singleton Snug form a delicious symbiosis: Top a slice of bread toasted in olive oil with a few slices of pastrami and a little balsamic cream.
