strayvector Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 What's your favorite drink to accompany your cigar? For me, if it is after dinner, I like to accompany a strong cigar like the BBF with either Woodford Reserve bourbon or Havana Club 7 year old rum. If it is a morning cigar like the Juan Lopez seleccion no.2, then I'll pair it with coffee. In the afternoon, I like a medium bodied smoke like the PSD4 and I'll pair that with plain hot tea. I find that the tea will clears my palate and allows me to enjoy the flavors of the cigar. Then, there is of course the poker cigars, these I will accompany with pretty much anything available like beer, coke, water, or on bad nights, humble pie.

Phailure Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 I like to sit down with either some coffee or tea. Caffeine :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1f1fan Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Coffee in the morning and a nice cold beer any other time of the day. I have been drinking Bass and Sam Adams Octoberfest lately. Guinness never fails to satisfy during the winter months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIGARHead Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Coffee in the morning. Any other time I Love Guiness and a good red wine like Tiziano...but my main drink is a good Rum, El Dorado, Zacapa, Barbancourt the list goes on and on....

herfkid Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Depends. Often, it's just water. If it's a cigar I know (not that there are very many of those yet), I'll put it up with a beer. Best pairing so far was a Juan Lopez Seleccion #2 and Havana Club 7yo rum ... holy crap! I've yet to explore the bourbon/cigar pairings, and I suspect I need more rum on hand as well...

spsurfin Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 In the morning, I enjoy coffee (sometimes with Balieys). In the evening, I prefer Rum. I will mix it up with great Scotch, Twany Port, or and occasionally a good beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Really it all depends on the cigar. Sometimes I like port other times beer ( ales and stouts )and the more than occasional bourbon. Sober time it would be coffee, black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrink Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Since I consumed more than a hundred years worth of alcoholic beverages during my first thirty-five years on the planet, I stick to non-alcoholic stuff now: Coffee, sodas, fruit juices, lemonade. Yeah, lemonade. If you haven't had some with a spicy stick like Partagas, you don't know what you're missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nely Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 » A nice glass of scotch does it for me:-D ditto my friend. But if I really want to concentrate on the cigar, nothing does it like an ice cold Sprite. It cleans the palate very well, leaving your tastebuds primed for your next puff.;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
