Wish List

Should be called The Over-Indulge List since we are, quite unashamedly, going OTT this month.

The Legendary Dark Silkie Irish Whiskey is rich, smoky and super soft, with hints of apple, pipe tobacco and salted-caramel sweetness, as well as dark chocolate and oak, with a smooth peat-smoked finish.

Superb neat or over ice but equally delicious in this Espresso Martini, which we plan to enjoy this Easter weekend. You’ll need 50ml Dark Silkie Irish Whiskey, 30ml chilled espresso, 15ml coffee liqueur and 10ml simple syrup. Simply shake vigorously with ice in a cocktail shaker, then strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with chocolate powder.

The Legendary Dark Silkie Irish Whiskey costs R610 from cutlerdrinks.co.za and bottle stores.
