Vacation confections are getting began with a bang courtesy of Scotch maker Glenfiddich and world famend New York Metropolis-based confectioner Thierry Atlan. The thought is straightforward: Take a and caramel-colored almond shells and fill it with white chocolate ganache that’s infused with Glenfiddich 23 12 months previous Grand Cru Scotch whisky plus “a ravishing concord” of different flavors. I can’t argue with the outcomes, which run by means of vanilla, coconut, white chocolate, and a fruity high quality that Atlan revers to as “pear sorbet and white grape.” I believe pear and inexperienced apple are nearer to my expertise. Better of all, the filling isn’t too candy, and the shells have the proper quantity of crunch so as to add a little bit texture to every chew.
My pattern field (12 cookies) was devoured almost instantaneously at a latest feast — and do observe that you needn’t be a whisky fan to take pleasure in them. That stated, they pair splendidly effectively with a glass of single malt, ideally Glenfiddish, ideally Grand Cru, ought to you’ve got a couple of bottles sitting round. And for those who don’t, effectively, they go down simply gorgeously all the identical.
