habanablue Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 OK, what do you prefer to drink whilst enoying a smoke? me...usually a scotch on a chilly evening or a gin and tonic if it's warm. Mojitos and sometimes sipping on aged Tequila accompany a cigar well.....
AG Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Through the cooler months I like a top shelf bourbon or an ultra-premium Tequila and for the summer I like gin and tonic or a Mojito.
El Presidente Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 JW Black label and soda tall glass with ice if before 11am. Pinot Noir 11am-3pm Mojito 3pm-6pm Shiraz 6pm - 11pm Aged Santiago rum 11pm +
culebra Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 My preference is Tequilla Sunrise in the am and good reds the rest of the time. I find cigars go perfectly with desert wines particularly ice wines.
dragon Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 I like to have a Parrot bay Rum and Coke, or banana rum and Coke is very tasty too.
ALB Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Late afternoon/sundown, mojitos are the bomb. later in the evening, good scotch (Glen Fiddich, Glenmorangie, JW Black straight or on the rocks) is a great accompaniment. 'Bout time we do this HB, been too long. A
Ben Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 My favourite is a really good Vodka on the rocks. My Doc had a heart attack when I mentioned this, something about vastly increasing my risk of assorted mouth cancers. I freely admit this alarmed me a little so now it's only on rare ocassion. So usually Guiness accompanies my smokes.
SMOKOZUNA Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Gout prevents me from enjoying anything mentioned above. I just drink water.

Freefallguy Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 Summer evenings parked in a comfy chair on the deck, it would be a nice Merlot or shiraz… Winters evenings I find a rich cup of dark roast coffee, with a bit of cream, nicely mirrors my Cohiba I!

Bowmore, Laphroaig and Lagavulin are all great choices with strong cigars. Most of the time I drink Jack or Knob Creek and ginger ale. Guinness is always good :-D
Tampa1257 Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 I love a cup of fresh roasted coffee in the morning along with a Bolivar PC. Mid-day Party Short with Ice water. Early evening Cohiba Robusto with Crown Royal on the rocks. Night cap Party Lusi with Dow's 30 year old Tawny Port. Makes for a wonderful day.
Jim Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Most Trappists beers (Belgium Ales) are excellent with most Cuban cigars, other times sipping on a nice port or red wine. Oh yes and liquors, frangelico, armaretto ect...
Curmudgeon Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 My favorite drink is bourbon, though I usually don't drink it with a cigar. I think Champagne goes very well with a cigar.
Smokin_Safari Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 Would have to be just like Easter Sunday afternoon - a 10 year old Henschke Hill of Grace, magically preserved after a long sea voyage.
Guest Sailor Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 Most week-end mornings, a good cup of fresh roasted coffee and a Partagas short. Mid day, just ice water seems to do the trick. Winter evenings Dewars 12, Nob Creek or Balvanie Double Wood. Summers, Mojitos with HC7.
benzig Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 Glenmorangie, Glenfiddich 18yo or Glenlivit for a scotch or a '98 cab sav.... weather tends to play a part though.
wasch_24 Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 » My favorite drink is water. Water for me as well. I don't like drinking alchohol straight or mixed, I do enjoy a beer now and again though. I like to drink water while smoking so that all I am tasting it the tobacco. Based on some reviews I've read on scotches and what not I truely wish I could stomach the stuff 'cause it sounds delicious.
El Presidente Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 wasch_24 I couldn't stomach scotch either but with application and practice I managed to overcome the initial setbacks.....with gusto ;-)
Cartman Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 A hot steaming latte in the afternoon Cool tall glass of pina colada in the evening And Sheridan on the rocks (any time of the day) Goes so damn well with any cigar...
Sean9689 Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 » » Early evening Cohiba Robusto with Crown Royal on the rocks. » Great taste! Those are my two favorites too! I also enjoy: Mojito Rum Ricky (Mojito w/o the mint) Silver Oak Cab Ice Water I'm not really a scotch guy, so I can't comment yet...
Vetteman Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Alcoholic: I enjoy Mojito's, rum & coke, or maybe a dark beer Non-alcoholic: Ice water, Iced tea, or coke
