PAIRINGS WHISKEY BUSINESS

FELIPE CUEVAS

Western Delray Beach has gained a world-class spirits destination with the opening of Warren American Whiskey Kitchen. Jeff John, CEO of Fort Lauderdale’s Damn Good Hospitality, named the restaurant for his uncle. With nearly 1,000 bottles on the whiskey list, patrons can indulge in everything from Macallan 50 Year ($10,000 for 2 ounces) to hard-to-find bourbon such as Pappy Van Winkle. The staff is eager to pair these delights with signature items from the food menu. Below, they share a few favorites. (warrendelray.com) —Mark Spivak

Michael “Iggy” Ignatowicz, General Manager The Dish: Smoked prime short rib with pickled vegetables, house steak sauce, chimichurri, and horseradish cream The Whiskey: Russell’s Reserve Barrel Proof 13-year-old Straight Bourbon Behind the Pairing: “I picked this bourbon because it has fantastic aromas of aged oak and sweet caramel that match extremely well with our smoked short rib. The flavors of the housemade seasonings complement the smooth finish from the bourbon.”

John “Fitzy” Fitzpatrick, Spiritual Advisor The Dish: Berkshire pork with bourbon apples, whole-grain honey mustard, fennel, and arugula

Scottish salmon with corn succotash

Smoked prime short rib

The Whiskey: Shenk’s Kentucky Sour Mash Whiskey Behind the Pairing: “The light, creamy flavors of a classic Kentucky bourbon perfectly magnify the pork and apples.”

FELIPE CUEVAS

Wayne Pasik, Assistant General Manager The Dish: Wild-caught Scottish salmon with corn succotash, blistered cherry tomatoes, and crab salad The Whiskey: Elijah Craig’s Toasted Barrel Straight Bourbon Behind the Pairing: “The sweetness of the succotash matches up with flavors of toasty oak. Add a side of our mac and cheese, and you have my last meal on death row.” REINVENTION

HOW TO Meat of the Matter

Kagoshima Tataki (A5 Japanese Wagyu) with pickled ginger shoots, shishito, crispy garlic, and mitsuba

“Wagyu is totally unlike any steak you’ve ever had,” says Eric San Pedro. “When you eat it, you can’t believe it’s beef. It’s so heavily marbled that your body temperature will render the fat, and the meat will literally melt in your mouth.”

San Pedro’s love affair with Japanese Wagyu began years ago when he was introduced to it in Las Vegas, and it quickly became an obsession. He began connecting with people who could deliver the product to his door and gradually developed a network of suppliers and purveyors, which led to the opening of Palm Beach Meats (located off Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach) in June.

“We carry Japanese Wagyu from prefectures that customers can’t usually find, and we also focus on Australian Wagyu in the higher marbling grades,” he explains. “But we’re not just a butcher shop. We have a selection of top-quality local produce, and there are vegetarians who come in every week.” The store also hosts pop-up lunches and dinners on the weekends.

For those buying Wagyu for the first time, San Pedro shares his tips on what to look for. (palmbeachmeats.com) —M.S.

PIPER JONES

VISUAL HONEY

• Buy fresh meat. Wagyu freezes well, but not for a long period of time. • Look for a certificate of authenticity. Every piece of meat is tracked with a number, and every purveyor should have documentation. • Wagyu is graded according to the degree of marbling. In Japan, 5 is the highest; in Australia, it’s 9. However, not everyone likes the same level of richness. • Assess before buying. There are no consistent ratings for American Wagyu, so assess the marbling with your eyes. • Don’t be put off by the cost. You’ll only eat 3 or 4 ounces at a sitting, and you’ll end up spending less than you would in a restaurant.
