Re: bourbon
Interesting question--a friend of mine and I were just talking about this over the weekend. We both agreed that --for whatever reason--scotch seems to go better with cigars than bourbon. Not sure if this was due to the cigars, the bourbon, or just our taste buds... We were both smoking full-bodied cigars, and the borubon just didn't seem to hold up. When I switched over to a single malt, all was right with the world again.
That said, I'd never turn down a bourbon-scotch combo. I mean, even when it ain't great, it's still damned good.
Favorite bourbons: It's pricey, and it's hard to find, but if you ever get the opportunity to try Pappy Van Winkle 20 yr old, do yourself a favor and enjoy it. It changed the way I look at Bourbon. AJ Hirsh 16 is also amazing.
