Whisky aficionados and fine dining enthusiasts, mark your calendars for an unforgettable evening of flavour and craftsmanship.
On Friday, 7 March, Taj Cape Town invites you to an exclusive Glenlivet Pairing Dinner at Mint Restaurant & Wood-Fired Grill, where exceptional cuisine meets the finest single malts.
For just R395 per person, indulge in a thoughtfully curated three-course menu, each dish paired with a distinguished Glenlivet whisky to enhance the dining experience.
- Begin your evening with a light and refreshing starter, complemented by The Glenlivet 12-Year-Old. Its honeyed floral notes and silky mouthfeel elevate the delicate balance of raw peanuts, edamame beans, and soy ginger honey dressing, alongside a medley of white peaches and pears poached in vanilla syrup.
- For the main course, a perfectly mustard and garlic-grilled sirloin steak is served with Parmesan and rosemary fondant potato, minted pea purée, fine beans, and a butter-poached rosemary jus. The robust flavours are expertly paired with The Glenlivet 15-Year-Old, whose soft spiciness, lingering fruitiness, and subtle nuttiness (think hazelnut and almond) complement the dish beautifully.
- Finally, dessert is a showstopper: a luxurious raspberry red velvet entremets, plated with pistachio ice cream, gold leaves, chocolate soil, sable biscuit, and a white chocolate delice. The indulgent textures and bold flavours are matched with The Glenlivet 18-Year-Old, a smooth, velvety whisky with intense spice and citrusy orange peel notes, rounding off the evening on a decadent high.
