There are so many ways to enjoy rich and robust Mortlach 12 single malt whisky, one of these is through Chele Gonzalez’ burnt basque cheesecake.
While many people prefer drinking whisky with seafood, cheese, smoked and roasted beef on the table, there are those who prefer to pair it with a variety of mouth-watering desserts.
Typically, spicy or cinnamon-based desserts blend well with Scotch whisky that has mild peat; meanwhile, fruit-based desserts such as fruit tart, chocolate-covered strawberries, peanut butter stuffed apples, and cherry clafoutis work well with a light, fruity whisky.
For dark, complex, and rich whiskies like Mortlach, desserts made with dark chocolate or cheesecake could significantly elevate anybody's drinking experience.
