Re: Favorite whiskey to drink with a cigar?
Definately prefer a single malt scotch. There are many, but my usuals are
Glenlivet
Glenfiddich
Laphroaig (Islay)

For other times, an American Bourbon
Wild Turkey 101

A friend of mine really likes Canadian Royal, but I find it a bit lacking in taste...

But it's all good.

Take care!

Re: Favorite whiskey to drink with a cigar?
Boy my answer here is "it depends". This summer it seems a good beer like Fat Tire or maybe a nice classic martini has been my drink of choice. In the Spring I tended to drink William Evans bourbon. I know as we move into Fall and then deep into Winter i'll switch to single malts.

The colder it gets the more I'll pair my cigars with a nice peaty bottling from Islay. Oh and the cigars will get more full body too.

Howdy All:

I hope you are great.

I started two things this year, bourbon and cigars. They seem to go very well together. I prefer Pappy Van Winkle- http://www.oldripvanwinkle.com/newbs...e?opendocument

Best regards, tony

Re: Favorite whiskey to drink with a cigar?
Oh sweet baby Jesus I do indeed likes me some Crown Royal with Ginger Ale.

Knob Creek and Seven is good too.

Currently I am enjoying the Bulleit Bourbon and Ginger Ale.

With an RyJ Reserve maduro.

Yes I am.

Re: Favorite whiskey to drink with a cigar?
Don't know the best, everyone likes what they like but my favorite to drink is bourbon.

Old Forrester is the best bang for your buck, and try eagle rare as well.

I can still get away with a Negra Modello, or a Guinness from time to time. But even the beer isn't what I remember it, so I mostly sip limeade with my smokes.

Still got a bottle each of The Glenlivet 12, and Laphroig 10 (love the peat!) they're both 3/4 full and holding. My buddy likes Glenlivit and he's got a wife who loves the Laphroig so I'm getting rid of it piecemeal, when they visit. I wonder if I just poured a couple swallows, if I could get away with a taste now and then without...

Anyway, cigars don't need alcoholic beverages as accompaniement, but it'd be nice to have some now and then.

I agree that Alcoholic beverages are not always needed, or hardly needed to enjoy a good cigar(heck, lemonade and Iced Tea are a couple favorites while I smoke cigars) but it certainly enhances the experience.

Re: Favorite whiskey to drink with a cigar?
My preferences

Mild cigar pairs with full bodied scotch - Lagavulin
Full cigar pairs with mild scotch - Balvenie
Coffee pairs with anything, as does Bulleit bourbon.

Re: Favorite whiskey to drink with a cigar?
Single Barrel Jack, Woodford Reserve, Gentleman Jack, Crown Royal and a fine Tequila like Don Julio or Heradura Reposado goes well also!
