A tawny port pairs wonderfully with Stilton. Grand Marnier tastes great on vanilla ice cream. Chianti seems to suit a Margherita pizza. And whisky? Well, that goes with haggis.

But haggis is a sheep's stomach stuffed with a mash of its offal, and tastes just as it sounds — so we'll have to find something else.

Suntory, the nation's top whisky distiller, hopes to make 2010 the year of whisky and chocolate. It's not a new idea, but it's a great idea for a company looking for more ladies to sip single malts.
