Why can't you smoke cigars in the morning? Morning stogies are fast becoming my favorite. Something about the quietness and breakfast food goes really well with cigars.

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

For a Minutos, a glass of Potro is just perfecto!
For those 50RG, a bottle of cold with a slice of lime Corona Beer!

Salud!

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

If its during the day, a good coffee goes nice with any cigar, esp. a Latte.
Of the evening i would have to say a Dilwhinney Single Malt scotch, straight, no ice or a Drambuie.

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

My all-time favorite is Bolivar Belicoso Fino with Havana Club (at least 7 Years).

When one or both of the above are not available, then just about everything goes well with Macallan in my opinion.

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

Got a bottle of Seagram's VO Gold for my birthday. Its an eight year old blended Canadian whiskey that I havn't tried yet. I usually prefer Canadian whiskey over single malts because they are quite smooth and a wee bit more affordable. Although the bottle of Glenmorangie 15 year old I gifted to my father-in-law was very nice.

Can't wait to try it with a stogie.

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

I am not in the mood for one of my mega-lists right now.

Here is a good combo for the approaching Summer:
Puros Indios and Hefe-Weisen
NO LEMON! Erdinger and Pyramid are good ones in my experience.

I have some big-honking PI Pyramid #1s slated for long afternoons this Summer.

Excellent choice! But the local micro-brewed "Hefe-Weisen" gives me a wicked migraine. They tell me micro-brews are unfiltered. Could that be the problem?

Is Tucher Weizen a different beer, or a brand name? I've got a nice gold rimmed glass with that name on it.

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

Isle of Jura 16 or 21 year old single malt whiskey & a Funte Funte OpusX is a nice combination!

Pair that up with some nice Cuban Cohibas and Romeo & Julietas that I bought on Bay Street, and it made for 9 of the finest nights I have known in this lifetime...

I found a recipe for a drink called Assassin:
1/3 oz Jack Daniel's® Tennessee whiskey
1/3 oz tequila
1/3 oz peppermint schnapps
3 oz chilled Coca-Cola®

Method
Pour whiskey, tequila and peppermint schnapps into a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes. Shake well. Strain into a cocktail glass, fill with chilled Coca-cola, and serve.

Does that sound like what you had?

Re: Your favorite Cigar/Drink Pairing

As a rule of thumb for me Jack Daniels is always a good idea. Lately I've also been drinking more Glenlivet aged 12 years. That along with one of the CAO Mx2 Robustos my buddy gave me go along good while I'm sitting out back at night.

-Lt. Col. Slade: Clear them little bottles off. And when I get off the phone here, call up Hyman and tell him I want it wall to wall with John Daniels.
Charlie: Don't you mean Jack Daniels?
Lt. Col. Slade: He may be Jack to you son, but when you've known him as long as I have

For a widely-available weiss beer, I really like Franziskaner, especially the dunkel--you never put lemon in a dunkel and, since it's a little heavier, it pairs very well with a wide range of cigars.
