Wondering What Foods Pair Well With Indian Single Malt Whisky? Here's A Perfect Match

Grilled & Tandoori Delights

Why it works: The whisky's sweetness softens spice, while oak and smoke echo the char on the grill.
Butter Chicken & Rich North Indian Curries
Smooth, elegant, and layered, DeVANS GianChand Single Malt Whisky carries notes of dried fruits, honey, and subtle spice. Pair it with butter chicken, dal makhani, or shahi paneer for a luxurious experience.
Why it works: Creamy gravies meet rounded malt sweetness for a rich, balanced pairing.
Spiced Biryani & Slow-Cooked Dishes
This bold, triple-wood Indian single malt brings depth, spice, and intensity. Its robust profile complements mutton biryani, chicken biryani, or slow-cooked meat dishes layered with aromatics.
Why it works: Both whisky and biryani offer complexity and a long, satisfying finish.
Seafood & Coastal Cuisine
With tropical fruit notes, gentle spice, and a smooth mouthfeel, Paul John single malts pair beautifully with grilled fish, prawn curry, or coconut-based coastal dishes.
Why it works: The whisky's fruitiness mirrors coastal flavours without overpowering delicate seafood.
Spicy South Indian Snacks
Bold and expressive, Amrut's spice-forward character works well with pepper chicken, masala vada, or spicy fried snacks.
Why it works: The whisky's heat and malt backbone stand up to bold South Indian spices.
Cheese Boards & Roasted Meats
Known for its balanced yet complex profile, Godawan pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses, roasted lamb, or herb-crusted meats.
Why it works: Nutty, woody notes complement both cheese and roasted flavours.
Desserts & Dark Chocolate
Well-aged Indian single malts—especially those with sherry influence—are a delight with dark chocolate, date-based desserts, gulab jamun, or chocolate barfi.
Why it works: Cocoa, caramel, and dried fruit notes amplify dessert sweetness.
So if you are planning on making the most of the long weekend by having a get-together with family or friends, having a well-stocked bar is the first step. This handy guide of whisky and food pairings will also make it easy to create a menu that will blend beautifully with the alcohol you serve. When Indian single malt meets Indian food, it's not just pairing, it's storytelling in a glass.
