Scotch and snack foods

[Dale Seago]

I like a good smoked salmon but not the cold smoked type lox, a hot smoked almost dry salmon. Also canned, smoked oysters are great.

For me personally that sounds like Islay fodder. The OP pretty much nailed it as far as I'm concerned.

Nuts are OK, but with an evening whisky if an I'm going to eat something, I go with a something on the sweet side - like an oatmeal/raisin cookie, say....

Not quite sports snacks, but here is an interesting article on pairing food with whisky.

Sounds like savory dishes (seafood, wild game, chocolate) are the way to go.

I've got to say, I think I'll continue to take mine neat, in a Glencairn crystal glass, with a side of water to cleanse the palette (not to add to the whisky).

If anything, I'd add a nice hand-rolled cigar, something dark, oily, and full-flavored.

What about a phylo dough based cheese twist?
