GEAMAIR
by Pawel Sowa

A seven-course tasting menu where whisky is a core ingredient, not an afterthought.

GEAMAIR by Pawel Sowa

Speyside on a plate

The Single Malt Chef’s fine-dining room. Seven courses built around the larder of the north-east, with bespoke whisky and wine pairings and whisky woven into every dish.

GEAMAIR (say “Ge-med”) is the Gaelic Scots word for gamekeeper. Pawel Sowa, The Single Malt Chef, calls his cooking Whisky Cuisine: working with the distilleries around us, he uses whisky’s smoky, fruity and floral notes as an ingredient rather than just a pairing.
