Deeks Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 When I started smoking cigars, I'd pair whatever CC I had with a glass of decent scotch. Nowadays though, I'm starting to dabble. A CC and coffee is always nice in the morning. A CC and red wine is good too. And my new fave is a CC with a good vodka on the rocks shaken with lemon. What's your combo?

gerem Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I like a good espresso with a Partagas Short during the week-end . I usually smoke my CC after a good evening meal with port or single malt . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargazer14 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I often have a drink with my smoke but nothing in peticular that I am pairing - except: I love my coffee on the way to work with a Punch Petite or Monti Purito. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Coffee hot or iced, beer, and often times nothing. I've mentioned before that I don't care for red wine with cigars. Personally, I feel that cigar smoke brings out and exaggerates the tannin of red wine, killing the wine's flavor. A crisp white works for me, and I'm still looking forward to trying a sparkling white with a cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB24 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I'm quite different that most people I think. I actually don't smoke and drink ever at the same time. When I say I don't drink I mean drink liquor. I like an ice cold glass of ice tea or lemonade or fruit punch. -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Diggamus Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I LOVE a Siglo I or Trini Reyes with a great cup of coffee. It just starts the morning beautifully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckins Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 If I'm smoking CC's and I want something other than water, Krug or Bollinger is first choice, second choice is a very watered JW scotch. If I'm drinking and having a smoke, I stick to the NC's and drink whatever is offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storeroomjeff Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I'm a beer man. Plain & simple. I wish my pallet was more refined, but it's not. I can appreciate a good red wine(whatever that means). Scotch, forget it it's like gasoline to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rob Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Coffee - generally espresso. Sometimes with milk. Though I often have Coke Zero or water as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stalebread Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 As the weather gets nicer I occasionally sit on the terrace of a local cafe and have a cigar mid-morning, I go with a pot of tea. Mostly, though, I smoke in the afternoon when I still go with hot tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy2 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Water,Coffee,Desert wine or port most of the time ... Never any Great Wine as cigars and them dont mix you will not taste all the flavors of the wine and the cigar will over power it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habanos2000 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I usually smoke my cigars without a drink, I try to focus on the cigar alone. Although I have enjoyed a few Cuervo Reserva de la Familia tequila's on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
