Dave Kuck Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 First-where I live-having a drink outside on a warm evening-hell that never happens. So it is port-port-port. dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdk Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 A good Port or a Bourbon on the Rocks usually Woodford Reserve. Sometimes a big glass of ice water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skid11 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Yep I'll have one of those thanks or all the above:lol3: How about Iced Water, Strong Black expresso in a small cup poured with love from a bodum, and a fine glass of Muscat.....Really guys do yourselves a favour and rush out and buy a bottle of Muscat it compliments any cigar perfectly.

Colt45 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Good coffee, hot or iced, or good beer. I love wine, and I love cigars, but I seem to be in the minority in not liking them together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Gargett Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 a really good VP is hard to beat but possibly an aged rutherglen muscat will do that. spirits - definitely rum though occasionally a good bourbon - favourite is the woodford reserve. i once spent a few hours with richard geoffroy, who makes dom perignon and is hugely into food/champagne matches. he has moved into cigar/champers matches but didn't know that. he had brought out a brilliant dom 1964 and while guzzling this, i asked what his research suggested would work best with it (thinking possibly caviar or fresh oysters or something along those lines). his answer floored me - a partagas D4. not sure i'd smoke one if i ever get my hands on another bottle of the 64. all that said, a good rum on ice. for a lighter style, really like the appleton special and the caney oro ligero (at about $7 in cuba, has to be one of the great bargains). bacardi 8 is pretty good. last weekend, as the glorious lions flogged the hapless bombers, and i smoked a really good aged partagas lusi, i thought i'd go up market. i brought back a bottle of the extremely exy (about $90 from memory but i really wanted to try it) santiago de cuba extra anejo (aged for about 20 years or more) from the last trip to cuba so opened it. take me know, lord! this was alcoholic cream. exquisite. certainly the best rum i've tried. it might be horribly expensive but it is worth it.

ilikecigars Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 depending on the cigar and time of day, either a nice cup of coffee a glass of hc7 or a bottle of nice porto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tebinium Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Mine is a good hard cider, Strongbow Original, or a cognac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIGARHead Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 » OK, what do you prefer to drink whilst enoying a smoke? In the a.m. its a big cup of dark roasted coffee. Mid-afternoon a Guiness. Evening it's JW Blue or a nice Pinot Noir or Shiraz. Never had a Mojito while smoking a cigar, but from all the talk about 'em it will be my next drink to accompany my smoke.

Johnny Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 » OK, what do you prefer to drink whilst enoying a smoke? Most single malt whisky and a coffee on the side. Both flavours go excellent with a cigar. The oiliness of a whisky followed by the darkness of the coffee. I usually like a Glen Grant 10 year old. Laphroaig 10 year old or cask strength for stronger smokes and Ben Nevis 10 year old when I want a bit of sweetness to liven up a weak cigar.

puros71 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I like to smoke cigars with variety depending on the time of day. I like expresso, Dos XX lager beer from Mexico, Cazadores Tequila, Cognac, and Rum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I enjoy a good scotch with my cigars. I do enjoy a Tequila but havent coupled that with cigars yet, gives me motivation to try it though. Ross... » 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.....

jjwright Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Bourbon has to be my favorite cigar drink with rum a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.harten Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I gotta agree with jjwright on this one. Used to be a single malt scotch guy until I stumbled across a good small batch bourbon and I have never looked back. Lately I have been trying different anejo rums and I am really enjoying how they compliment certain cigars, especially Habanos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argon345 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 A good single malt or port with just about any habanos!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BL68MUSTANG Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 OK, you may think it is sick! I never drink while smoking a Habanos except maybe water. Water just increases the flavor to the fullest. Now after smoking various single malts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigardawg Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 My favorite pairing is typically coffee or port. I often drink bourbon simply because I like bourbon. If I am really trying to experience the cigar...I just drink water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexgtp Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Im going to sound like a wussy girl.. But i enjoy a martini.. call me old fashion.LOL!! But when I am smoking a fuller bodied cigar. Nothing compliments my cigar more that a nice sungle malt scotch. Oh and I also enjoy Ron Zacapa 23 anos.. Yummy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyburg Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 In the A.M. a good strong cup of coffee with Kahlua. In the P.M. a small batch bourbon or if in the summer on the deck a vodka tonic with plenty of lime. After dinner a white Russian- sounds crazy but it works for me.
