We are please to introduce our new whisky and cheese menu…Alex
James, the British song-writer turned cheese aficionado, has teamed
up with the athenaeum hotel’s head chef, David Marshall, and
resident whisky sommelier, Angelo Gobbi, to create a whisky and
cheese food pairing menu in celebration of the hotel’s whisky
bar.
With Alex James’ expert knowledge and passion for cheese, which has
been nurtured since a move to the countryside and building a cheese
factory, the athenaeum’s head chef’s experienced palette and the
whisky sommelier’s expert knowledge of the spirit, the team have
created a mouth-watering menu of culinary treats which will appeal
to whisky lovers and cheese enthusiasts as well as novices
alike.
Alex James says, “The range of flavours spanned by first class
cheese and whisky is so vast that matching them can be quite a
tricky business. The athenaeum team and I feel confident we have
found the ultimate combinations of superlative whisky and fine
cheese. Sometimes it's the most unlikely combinations that produce
the most spectacular results.”
