Whisky and Cigars! Perfect together.

I came across this new podcast about another of my favorite pastimes ... WHISKY! (note the lack of "e"). This, combined with the boys of the Dogwatch Social Club (www.dogwatchsocialclub.com), keep my iPod nice and full.

Anyway, the show is entertaining, informative and not at all pretentious. The host, Mark is a very down-to-earth Jersey boy who says up front that he won't review whisky, he'll just report the latest whisky news. That approach is refreshing and I for one am glad for the up to date information on all things whisky.

Give him a listen here:

www.whiskycast.com

The last show featured an interview with Riannon Walsh who organizes the Whiskies of the World Expo in San Francisco. One of the featured event this March will be Benji Menendez who will do a Master Class cigar and whisky pairing. You'll find a link to the event above.

Ahhh whisky and cigars ... can live get any better? I submit that it CANNOT!

Re: Whisky and Cigars! Perfect together.

Port at the herf over the weekend that just passed.
Vodka yesterday.
Sounds like a plan for today. WHISKY!

P.S.
Just realized - Out of whisky.
Does good ole Tenn Bourbon count? Plenty of JD there for me.

If they do a tequila and cigar pairing class, Ron will be there with bells on!

Andrew,
Did not keep my word.
Ended up with the vodka again.
That free bottle of Grey Goose my wife brought home kept calling my name.

If ever you, Frank, Anita and I can be in the same place for some extended time, we'll have to make sure to mark the occasion with a lil whisky and a few cigars ... OK a LOT of whisky and a BUNDLE of cigars apiece.

Re: Whisky and Cigars! Perfect together.

Jeof, I talked to Frank and Anita tonight and we're already trying to figure out how we all can get together. Looking forward to making this happen.

Re: Whisky and Cigars! Perfect together.

Speaking of whisky ... I got a bottle of Glenfarclas 17yr old recently and it has quickly become a favorite. A touch on the sweet side and smooth as silk.

Farclas is a good malt...not very well known, but a classic speysider, has that heathery/floral profile

Ahhh, I must agree - as I sit here enjoying a late night stogie and a Laphroaig neat. In the past, I always preferred something sweat like a pepsi with my cigars. But recently I have developed a taste for good single malt scotch whisky - they just pair so nicely.

Re: Whisky and Cigars! Perfect together.

I just joined a Scotch forum:

www.whisky101.com

on the recommendation from Mark of WhiskyCast fame. It's a brand new forum and one of the threads deals with pairing whisky with cigars. Stop on by. I'm jeofvita over there.
