Baby spinach and rucola leaves, dry aged Parmesan flakes, roasted pine nuts, glazed balsamic dressing, fresh strawberries and almond dust make for one of the best salads I have tasted. But throw in a Singleton Tailfire as the pairing of choice and it is a whole new food game.
The mellowness of the whisky, which Alexander Kavita, reserve brand ambassador for Diageo describes as a good “entry into the complex world of single malts”, melts in with the sweetness of the fresh strawberries, spiciness of the rucola and the acid in the dressing.
