This is the exact drink the owner of the wine store I go to recommended when I asked him what to drink with a medium to fuller bodied cigar. He said it went together like peanut butter and jelly and he was right.

Madeira costs more than port, but it does not go bad in the bottle and is just magic with a cigar!
Broadbent madeira is awesome! Havent had it while smoking a cigar but I bet its awesome

If you like the Rainwater, the Broadbent 10 year will blow you away. It's night and day different! Rare Wine Company Historic series is awesome too. Each style is worth getting. I am picking up a case of Boston Bual soon.
